Description

The concept of extremes aims to highlight and describe the particular sensitivity that enables and supports creative and sustainable interaction between human/nonhuman actors and the ever changing, severe environment of the Arctic. Moreover, with the current speed of climate change, when the notion of the extreme environment is to be expanded towards most parts of the 'spaceship earth' in the next 20-50 years, the challenges of nature and their social and cultural implications will call for a creative response.

This exhibition was organised during the coronavirus pandemic and therefoe is online rather than in a gallery. It involves 26 contributions from 50 artists, designers, architects and educators from Alaska, Canada, Finland, Norway, Russia, Scotland Sweden.

My contribution comprises three digital images:
