FERMENTING CHANGE

This mindmap was made by 10 participants during the last 10 minutes of a workshop I held on imagining ecological cultures. I modeled the thinking around probiotic (living) cultures rather than the antibiotic (destructive) ones inspired by my beloved home made yogurt originating from Romania or thereabouts 100+ years ago via New York and Arctic Norway to England. A truly living, organic, self organising culture and structure for sustainable communities.

ARBEIDS STIPEND!!!

Endelig! Jeg har fått etårig arbeidsstipend fra Bildende Kunstnernes Hjelpefond. Det er første gangen jeg får arbeidsstipend etter 20 år som kunstner og jeg var nær ved å gi opp.  Endelig kan jeg fordype meg i den delen av mitt kunstnerskap som jeg ellers må legge på hylla av mangel på tid og penger. Og jeg skal gjøre ferdig filmen min BREATH som jeg har jobbet med i mellomrommene de siste 4 årene. Hurraaa!

ECOCULTURES 2012

Participating in a panel at the conference Ecocultures 2012, 17-18th April, together with Oleg Koefoed, Natalia Eernstman, Karen Blincoe and Lucy Neal. We will explore futures thinking, artistic practice and imagination in relation to learning for sustainability. We will address questions such as: Do we have to plan from or for the future? How we foster futures thinking? How can art facilitate or catalyze this process? How can we stimulate the envisioning of different and positive futures in communities? And how do we proceed from the mere imagined visions and ‘good’ intentions to actual realization and steps in the right direction?
