What’s going on?
Bow Skills workshop: interrogating eco-literacy and what meaningful ecological artistic practices could look like with Youngsook Choi
How can eco-literacy and ecological grief be used to resist patterns of planetary extraction through our artwork? What is the role of meaningful ecological artistic practice in challenging how we consume, experience, and engage with art? Join artist and researcher Youngsook Choi in a reflective session diving into these questions and their implications for our practices and the wider arts ecosystem.
