If we are to meet the challenges of climate change, we must act radically different than today. Artistic research practices, which support an attentive and holistic approach, offer a methodological tool box which can bring to light relationships across cultural and ecological predicaments.

Film creates awareness through tangible or imaginary visions and can thereby suggest alternative forms of knowledge and action in architecture. This event combines screenings of recent experimental and co-creative film work with a panel discussion about the film medium – including drone footage – as a means for exploration, collaboration and reflection. 

We will screen the short film Elephant in the Room by Design Earth - an eco-feminist fable about the climate crisis narrated by Donna Haraway.

Participants include artists and researchers from Denmark and abroad: Jacob Kirkegaard, Rikke Munck Petersen, Henriette Steiner, Sofie Stilling, Hongxia Pu, Kristin Veel, Kassandra Wellendorf, Hugh Campbell, Anne Spirn and Igea Troiani. 

The session is a collaboration between CAFx, Surroundingslab.org and the University of Copenhagen.
