Tu 1.10.2024

In this edition, they are interested in showcasing drawings, artistic projects, images, articles, essays, and contextual or critical texts that address, problematize, or explore representations of Nature and Landscape, Environmental Narratives, connections between humans and non-humans, our anthropocentric culture, or other possible worldviews.

Drawing and images can reflect human thoughts and concerns, representations of nature, and our ideas about the world in a contemporary context marked by pressing ecological and sustainability issues.

The aim is to understand how images or drawings can critically question these themes, explore these ideas, and represent our connections between species, potentially proposing alternatives or highlighting current concerns. How can drawing, as a materialization of thought, formalization of ideas, and construction of solutions, inspire, mobilize, educate, and inspire? How does drawing bear witness to our actions, solutions, and changes in our ecological culture?
