Synopsis

Sensing Earth states that our environmental issues are in the
first place a matter of culture and aesthetics. Technology and
science are not enough to solve these problems.
Our globe is facing an escalation of ecological problems, with
no quick solutions in sight. We seem to be caught in a spiral
of health issues, burnout, sensory overload, depression, and
somatic deprivation. Artists faced with these crises are looking
for ways to articulate the ongoing emergencies and explore
possible ways out. However, the arts and culture are caught
in a double bind. Artists and cultural initiatives need circulation
to let ideas intersect and create meaningful connections.
However, this globalized system also contributes to the planet’s
ecological decline: by countless journeys from one biennale,
international residency, touring exhibition and networking
event to the next. After the Covid-19 pandemic ‘business as
usual’ seems to prevail.
Sensing Earth includes essays, interviews, poetry, manifestos,
choreographic prompts, speculative fiction, and case studies
operating at the intersection of art and activism, culture and
nature. All texts explore what sensorial foundations are necessary
to address systemic failures, and what routes to take
for keeping us moving on this planet, physically, emotionally
and intellectually.
