Abstract
This presentation within the EMPACT European Program (Empathy and Sustainability: The Art of Thinking like a Mountain), expands on a set of speculative investigations and practices I have been researching into and developing through the years that respond to today’s themes. These connect with, as well as examine quests around the subject of Economies of Empathy & Sustainability: a gestural return in the contexts of art...
...A variety of media, art-practices (drawing, erasing, assemblage) and materials are employed to examine how different modes of production re-locate, overpower or pacify perceptions of existing -archival- images/booklets and their produced meaning.
Reflecting, at the same time, on the politics of place and issues around identity construction. Cultural and spatiotemporal fragments and hierarchies are re-configured to investigate the fragilities or persistence around specific cultural constructs.
At the same time new materials are re-introduced within the existing archival matters, to destabilise –stereotypical- perceptions and to, perhaps, open up to new possibilities of thinking, feeling and connecting with the current socio-political conditions.' Vicky Pericleous, artist/assistant professor, (CUT).
