Dear colleagues,

I am very pleased to host this week’s Thursday seminar, Oct 31^st 12:15 on site in room MA335.

Artist Josefina Nelimarkka - THE CLOUD OF UN/KNOWING

Josefina Nelimarkka is an interdisciplinary artist working with environmental questions and multisensory experiences combining artistic and scientific perspectives. In her exhibitions, she explores atmospheric phenomena and perception in collaboration with climate scientists. Her work focuses on clouds and the symbiotic relationship between nature and technology through real-time climate data - creating multiple ways of sensing, knowing and being present. Within the subtle materiality, what expands is atmospheric consciousness.

In the seminar, Josefina Nelimarkka will present her recent exhibition The Cloud of Un/knowing at Amos Rex in Helsinki and her collaboration with our Arctic Ecology and Biochemistry research group from Ecology and Genetics Research Unit, Oulu University.
