1-2 February 2024, University of Newcastle, Australia

In collaboration with A/Prof Michelle Duffy, School of Environmental and Life Sciences, this workshop with PhD students, artists and researchers focussed on critical discussion and exploration of a reoccurring question : What does it feel like to engage in practices, processes and relations that help us understand and seek ways to address the changes wrought by the Anthropocene? 

Addressing the challenges of the Anthropocene becomes “an exploration of that which is shared or held in common between human bodies and earth forces” (Bosworth 2017: 33; emphasis in original)
