Your patience is rewarded, we have just published the first of this year's three keynote/Agora recordings online! ✨▫️In the Aboagora "Wind" Symposium this August, Canadian photographer and writer Joan Sullivan discussed energy transitions as liminal spaces.▫️Navigating the transition to a future fueled by non-fuels (wind, water, sun) will be easier if we have the wisdom to learn from the past. In her keynote, Sullivan turns to Janus – the two-headed Roman god of transitions – to help us better understand the liminal nature of all energy transitions, past and present. By keeping an eye simultaneously on the past and the future, Janus reminds us that energy transitions throughout history have one thing in common: they are inherently disorienting yet transformative; their outcome is unknown yet full of choice where none seemed to exist before. Viewed through the lens of liminality, energy transitions reveal themselves as potent thresholds through which humanity has radically expanded its definition of what is possible by breaking out of entrenched patterns of thought. ▫️For nearly two decades, Sullivan has focused her cameras exclusively on climate change. Self-taught, she first concentrated on the energy transition. But since 2019, her photographic gaze has shifted from documentary to abstraction in response to an overwhelming sense of ecoanxiety about the climate crisis. ▫️A big thank you once again to Joan Sullivan for this talk! Enjoy! ✨ ... See MoreSee Less

ABOAGORA 2022 is now sadly behind us! However, Renja Leino’s sound work “Tuuli – Vind” is still available on SoundCloud and will take you right back to explore the theme of wind 🙌Renja Leino is an artist based on the island of Korpo, where she is also the artistic director & coordinator for AARK, a non-profit Artist-Run, independent artist residency.Leino’s sound work “Tuuli – Vind” consists of a collection of stories told by the islanders about their experiences of the wind. The stories flow smoothly between and across two languages, Swedish and Finnish, just like the daily life of the archipelago 🌬You can find more information and listen to the work here: aboagora.fi/renja-leino-tuuli! 📸 Photo by Stefan Crämer, 2011.#aboagora2022 #betweenartsandsciences #fiverings #wind #rohkeatekijä #interdisciplinary #turku #åbo #donnerinstitute #taideakatemia #uniturku #åboakademi #koneensäätiö #svenskakulturfonden #renjaleino #aarkfi ...
