Performances
In a new artistic action, the members of Ecolab, provoked by playwright Alister Emerson, ask themselves: if six polar bears were to fall from the sky, what would happen after the impact, the commotion, and the forgetting? What would be done with these poor climate refugees amid the jungle of civilization? In this 10th Vestiges Exhibition, promoted by the Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Arts, Urbanities, and Sustainability (PIPAUS), the laboratory seeks to listen to the voices of those who, like our bears, find themselves at the mercy of decisions that continue to destroy our planet.
