An incounter that intertwines art, science, and the Mediterranean to explore the relationships between body, water, environment, and knowledge.
Artist Yolenn Farges and marine biologist and researcher Cristina Piñeiro-Corbeira (University of La Coruña, BioCost–CICA group) discuss the interdependencies between land and sea, ecology and culture, research and care.
From coastal foraging to macroalgae conservation, from cuisine as a political gesture to marine biodiversity as a living archive, Bodies of Water and Mediterranean Intersections offers a sensitive and interdisciplinary reflection on the Mediterranean as a shared ecosystem, where art and science collaborate to imagine more sustainable and supportive forms of life.
The conversation will be moderated by Cristina Alga, director of the Mare Memoria Viva Ecomuseum in Palermo.
