About
A conversation between artists Katy Connor and Veronica Vickery, chaired by curator Nella Aarne, about their mutual interests and concerns weaving across artistic practice, care, living materials, liquidity and ecology.
The event begins with a screening of a short film collaboration, exploring some of the processes, practices and ideas from Connor’s and Vickery’s ongoing projects HydroPoetics and Graveyard. Following the screening will be a discussion between the artists and curator Nella Aarne, reflecting on María Puig de la Bellacasa’s writing on care in more-than-human worlds.
Audience members are invited to contribute to the discussion through the online chat. All registered guests will be sent a PDF of the text Coda from Matters of Care: Speculative Ethics in More Than Human Worlds, María Puig de la Bellacasa (2017, p. 217-221).
