Vessel and CLIMAVORE x Jameel at RCA are looking for expressions of interest to join our gathering Acts of Maintenance: Small-Scale Practices for Climate Justice on May 9 -10 in Masseria Sant’Agapito.
Over two days of workshopping, deep listening, walking, cooking and eating, we will bring together peers and colleagues to explore the following questions:
🐛 How do arts organisations embody activist cultures in the context of environmental justice?
🪱How can we foster institutions that act as a catalyst for environmental justice-based actions?
🪰 What does responsiveness mean in the context of climate justice and adaptation?
🌳How can arts organisations come together in the face of ecological loss and grief?
We would like to address these questions from the perspective of small-scale arts organising, in a generative and nurturing space to explore methods, challenges and possible collaborations across actors and organisations of similar scale and infrastructure. With this two-day multifaceted gathering, we bring to the fore similar projects and initiatives that swarm in the undergrowth of the art scene, feeding and nourishing the sector from below.
We will be joined by Cooking Sections (CLIMAVORE), Gaetano Carboni (Pollinaria - Civitella Casanova, Italy), Raluca Voinea .de.cercetare (The Experimental Station for Research on Art and Life – Primăverii, Siliștea Snagovului, Romania).
More contributors to be announced soon.
