LAND

Scientists warn of the imminent collapse of our civilization, but how can we speak of a civilization, if we are unable to do something about climate breakdown, if we are even allowing it to become worse? This series is about climate breakdown, ownership, territory and colonialism.

Living with Land Otherwise

This dossier questions worldviews and practices based on ownership and possession

Land is the earth beneath our feet, the horizon that stretches beyond our view, the matter of which life and energy springs from and returns to. Yet, how do we see land? How do we treat it? How do we inhabit it? How do we care for it? And how do we leave it?

How to Be With Plants?

With Lobke Meekes and Irene Urrutia

Podcast series Sounding Places / Listening Places

If we wish to develop a more sustainable future, we urgently need to reconnect to our environment and restore a more reciprocal relationship with the earth. In the Radio ArtEZ podcast series Sounding Places / Listening Places writer and music journalist Joep Christenhusz and creator of sound works, writer and Deep Listener Sharon Stewart enquire how sound and listening can help us to do so.

In contemporary Western culture we seem to have lost an intimate connection with the land. More often than not we consider our surroundings as a passive backdrop in which humankind can take center stage: controlling the landscape, developing infrastructures, and extracting resources at will. This rather anthropocentric position has become unviable, however, as recent human-driven ecological crises – like climate change, the dramatic loss of biodiversity and large-scale destruction of habitats – are clearly indicating. If we wish to develop a more sustainable future, we urgently need to reconnect to our environment and restore a more reciprocal relationship with the earth.
