THE EARTH AS AN EVENT

16 June 2021 / 5 p.m. Auditorium Museu Coleção Berardo.

Abstract

In an original relationship with nature, the artistic and geophilosophical project on Earth Matter, which corresponds to a transdisciplinary project, in the promotion of research, experimentation, creation and artistic innovation, as a horizon of thinking and acting, in the critical moment constituted by the Anthropocene, intends to intervene and give visibility to other possibilities of inhabiting the Earth. It becomes the form of creative expression that mediates and articulates the past with the present, to communicate it to the future.
