‘What if, is Now’ with Malin Arnell

Immaterial Ecologies. A gathering to resynchronise land and body.

Event Slider

In What if, is Now, the presence of Malin Arnell appears as an illusional figure in the Gulbenkian Garden. Exploring affect and desire between their body and this of the environment, the natural elements and the artist’s breathing get intertwined unfolding as a sensorial landscape.

BIOGRAPHY

Malin Arnell, PhD. (1970, Stockholm/Berlin) is a visual and performance artist, researcher and educator. Over a period of twenty five years Malin has been engaged in collaborative practices, through an embodied and affective now. Through their commitment to a queer feminist, posthumanist and agential-realist approach Malin has developed an in-depth practice of knowing-through-doing, which includes an extended ecological sensibility. It was in dialogue with these disciplines and fields that they developed the 72-hours live PhD thesis in Choreography, Avhandling / Av_handling (Dissertation / Through_action) (2016) at Stockholm University of the Arts. 


IMMATERIAL ECOLOGIES

«Immaterial Ecologies» programme includes conversations, concerts, performances, poetry sessions and other artistic practices that will reflect upon the immaterial and spiritual dimensions of ecology.
