How do we understand nature? How do we approach it? How do we write about it, what do we write about it, or how do we express it? How do we relate to nature and how is it present in our work as researchers and artists?
This seminar brings together scholars from across academic disciplines and artists from visual arts, literature, and related fields to explore nature as a shared site of inquiry and habitation. The aim is to foster dialogue across disciplinary and aesthetic boundaries, and to investigate how nature is conceptualized, engaged with, and represented in diverse practices.
In response to ecological challenges and cultural shifts, the seminar seeks to move beyond binary understandings of nature and culture, subject and object, human and non-human. Instead, it invites participants to develop new relational and multidisciplinary approaches, where nature is not merely a resource or backdrop, but an active participant in knowledge-making and artistic expression.
Through presentations, conversations, and collaborative exploration, the seminar seeks to cultivate the imagination, the intuition, new ways of thinking, sensing and co-creating with nature. The goal is to generate transformative insights that can advance both research and cultural production – toward more inclusive, dynamic, and sustainable futures.
The seminar will facilitate various forms of conversation, including papers, roundtables, artistic performances and shared experiences.
Programme and further details forthcoming.
