The podcast series Creators facing the Climate Emergency provides a platform of conversations between artists, thinkers and scientists to create new narratives, to raise awareness and to incite action in the face of the climate change with artists as mediators.
The conversation between Brazilian artist Ernesto Neto and Canadian philosopher Michael Marder will analyse the concepts of plant intelligence and vegetal soul, explore the temporality and connectivity of plants and envision the ontological and ethical stance arising therefrom.
How can plant intelligence and the vegetal soul inform artistic practice?
And which ontological and ethical teachings can be derived from the temporality and connectivity of plants?
