Does Nature - its various ecosystems and species - need rights to stand as equals with us, the one species that draws and polices the very boundary between human and natural worlds? What role could sound and listening play in rewiring how we relate to nature through law, but also everyday practices, creative initiatives, ethical responsibility, and the respect of shared values?
The symposium brings together artists, researchers, activists, and civic institutions who use sound and listening to rethink how we coexist, with each other and with other species, across the built and natural environments we share.
Join us for several days of probing new ways - and recovering old ones - of understanding, sensing, and re-sounding our deep dependence on more-than-human worlds and the many beings that build and sustain them, now increasingly at risk.
PAI_32 is a platform created in the UK to be a global catalyst for critical thinking and innovation in contemporary art, empowering artists, curators and art collectors to connect and thrive. I am grateful they put me in the spotlight as artist of the month and interviewed me about my artistic practice.
