TAKE PART AND BE INSPIRED
is the second edition of the Science, Sustainability and Art Series: a combination of lectures, workshops and art installations which bring sustainability scientists, practitioners and artists to the Herderbau building to explore how art can be used as a tool for sustainability.
The aim of the series is to uncover aspects of sustainability, such as sensory and emotional experiences, which are strengths of aesthetic enquiry but often neglected by traditional research frameworks. Inspired by the upcoming COP21 negotiations, the focus of this autumn edition is Climate Change -and we don’t just want to talk about it, we want to act it out!
From using theatre as a research tool and science to create a photo-exhibition, to colectively creating a giant word-sculpture out of our thoughts on climate change, you’re warmly inivted to come along to the Herderbau this November to discuss, feel and experience first-hand the innovative ways in which art can be used to make research truly transformative.
