Art/Place is a three-part webinar series exploring how artists and/or arts-based practitioners engage with Arctic places through diverse creative practices and perspectives. Hosted by the UArctic Thematic Network on Critical Arctic Studies (CAS), each one-hour session will bring together three artists/practitioners whose work is in, with, or about, a specific Arctic location.
The series will begin with three artists working in/with/about Svalbard, followed by sessions focusing on Northern Finland and Greenland. Each webinar will feature brief presentations from the artists/practitioners, followed by a moderated conversation that draws out the complexities of place-based practice in the Arctic. By combining voices and perspectives of those who live in, move through, or work with these regions from outside of the region, Art/Place aims to foster a dynamic, transdisciplinary dialogue that considers the multiple ways people relate to and work with place in their practice(s).
