Speakers: <a href="https://sites.google.com/york.ac.uk/earthlings-anthropocenearttalk/speakers" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Amanda Boetzkes / Jakob Kudsk Steensen </a>How can technology change the way we perceive the environment? Working through practices of environmental storytelling, artist Jakob Kudsk Steensen uses immersive art installations to rethink the ways in which we are situated within the natural world. From 3D animation, augmented reality, virtual reality and sound installations, technology forms the basis of this artistic inquiry as its audience is transported to, and embedded within, multiple environments. In this talk, Kudsk Steensen will be in conversation with art historian Amanda Boetzkes, to discuss the role of vision within artistic practices seeking to examine modes of ecological perception. With Boetzkes offering a specialist focus on the visualisation of Arctic landscapes, they will explore the potential and challenges of vision, technologically mediated or otherwise, for art addressing today’s ecological crisis.

Earthlings - Anthropocene Art Talks, 2021, is a webinar series organised with four online talks in September and October. Each talk will focus on a specific environmental-related contemporary issue and be structured as a one-hour talk with invited artists, curators or academic researchers specialising in the related field. Webinars will explore factors including natural history, colonialism, geographical politics, resource exploitation, religious philosophy, technological revolution and global consumerism. The artists’ practices included will speak to this contemporary condition through multiple investigations and field studies, demonstrating how each individual is involved within this anthropogenic system.<a href="https://sites.google.com/york.ac.uk/earthlings-anthropocenearttalk/home" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">More information and other events related to &#x27;Earthlings - Anthropocene art Talks, 2021&#x27;. </a>
