Description

This WG is concerned with artistic and creative practices dedicated to ecological relations between various 'natures' – human and non-human. It is also concerned with practices that defend the rights of 'nature' and climate justice as viewed and problematised mainly by non-European cultures, in ancestral or in recent local communitarian and activist practices. Based on the awareness of ecological plurality, the WG explores epistemologies drawn from various forms of natural life, as encountered for example in South American and African contexts. These creative practices generate new forms of relating, interacting and collaborating between various forms of natural beings.

The WG also focuses on cross-cultural technological innovations, based on the implication of living organisms such as microorganisms, fungi, bacteria (for example that can help with carbon sequestration) etc. It contemplates solutions in circularity, developed by what has been called ‘bio-technologies’, 'bio-arts' working with nature, being informed by natural processes, and integrating these processes in the urban setting. By rethinking a more ethical relationship with the natural environment, natures are understood as potentialities that can be activated in relations of reciprocity between various forms of living beings.

About Theoretical Questions

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
