Climate Crisis Artist Lab

Exploring the intersections of art, the climate emergency and speculative futures

The Climate Crisis Artist Lab examines the role of artists in the climate emergency context with a focus on intersectional creative methodologies, transdisciplinary collaboration and speculative futuring.

Sessions include a screening of REFUGIUM and an interactive workshop, delivered by members of the Centre for Reworlding.

What we explore

  • What do you consider to be the skills and knowledges needed in climate emergency risk reduction and resilience?

  • What skills, knowledge and expertise can you offer?

  • How might this workshop impact your practice?

Outcomes include:

  • Valuing and recognising your professional capacities, connections and artistic voices as part of the climate change ecology

  • Untethering from the ways of conventionally working within + across institutions

  • Gaining an understanding of how you can adapt to the challenges + mitigate impacts of climate change on your practice

Who is this for?

This full-day creative lab is for artists and explores the intersections of creative practice in the climate emergency context.

Artists interested in exploring the intersections of art, the climate emergency and speculative futures and how to transcend their own practices.

Artists interested in expanding their understanding of transdisciplinary collaborative methods of generating new knowledge together and a desire to deepen collaborative relationships with others.

Artists ready to lean into tensions and becoming comfortable being uncomfortable.
