Description

Recognizing the growing precarity and vulnerability of the human condition, exacerbated by climate change, extractive Capitalism, liberal individualism, and rapid digital transformations, this panel is dedicated to presenting new, interdisciplinary research aimed at undoing inequalities. We seek contributions that employ feminist-inspired critique through art agency and creative practice research to address challenges in knowledge construction that shape and limit what and how we know. We invite critical, art and craft -based engagement, seeking change through epistemic redefinitions and in supporting the dignity of living. The panel emphasizes innovation, collaboration, activism and the critique of dominant power structures.
