Fia-Lo Doepel:
In my artistic practice I co-work with sites, elements and their inherent entities/more-than-humans in connection to thematics regarding the climate crisis, mythology and folk traditions. Ecofeminism, new-animism and posthumanism are the key modes within which I operate and I implement these within the creative process and the noticing processes. It is important for me and the work to have an actual relationship with the sites and its inherent critters and to acknowledge different ecosystems as clusters of living entities with their own agency and that us humans co-world with these beings.
Tom Zelger:
Tom Zelger is a visual storyteller and artist based in Lund, Sweden. Since 2015 his works have explored the intersections of social politics, environmental questions and visual psychology. Using a research driven practice, he works with digital and analog processes and materials to create critical images that engage with power structures, memory and ecological/social fragility.
Anna Hulth:
To enable a more tangible and introspective experience, Anna has worked with a process in which she transfers her photographs onto tactile materials, such as textiles. The goal is to explore the relationship between image, material, and emotion, and to investigate how these elements can work together to communicate complex stories.

V.
Make me thy lyre, even as the forest is:
What if my leaves are falling like its own!
The tumult of thy mighty harmonies
Will take from both a deep, autumnal tone,
Sweet though in sadness. Be thou, Spirit fierce,
My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one!
Drive my dead thoughts over the universe
Like wither’d leaves to quicken a new birth!
And, by the incantation of this verse,
Scatter, as from an unextinguished hearth
Ashes and sparks, my words among mankind!
Be through my lips to unawaken’d earth
The trumpet of a prophecy! O Wind,
If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?
(Percy Bysshe Shelley)

This one goes out to all the people who voted a #party into the #german #parliament , whose #ideology is based on #discrimination and #exclusion . (means: to half the population of #germany )
To all the others and the ones who probably will directly be confronted with their #politics : #bestrong , #organize , #fight and #create .

#ode to #blu . The #images , that had been painted on the walls at #cuvrybrache in #berlin more than a decade ago also influenced my #understanding of the #world . I loved that place and hung out there quite a lot when I lived there and before it got #gentrified .
There‘s room for interpretation of the image, probably all of them go in the right direction.

Normally, there are #nowordsneeded , but …
Anti-fascism means standing against every form of discrimination and western-, european- and GER-centrist ideas. Not just now, it always has been!
Ignoring that is contrary to the idea of #equality , #diversity .

„Welcome to the whole new pain and take comfort in what you’ve become. I waved as I passed myself along the way. I have arrived so unashamed, but my reflection no longer looks the same. It seems much dimmer now, it seems so dim.
Don‘t stumble and fall into a world that‘s overcrowded. And you will find me, won‘t recognise me. I won‘t recognise myself.“

For the sub-project ‚Burnt Bridges‘ I collected #leftover #wood at a clear cut site to print images of the forest‘s destruction on it by using #darkroom techniques. Because clear cutting kills pretty much everything which had existed there before, it is forbidden to use this method in most #european countries.

There are many ways to read this image, that was part of my final project during my MA at Valand in Gothenburg. Probably it is important to know that post-structural and counter-colonial/anarchist theories shaped the work and created its foundation. Questioning old habits and socialized perspectives is therefore an important component, that should also be implemented outside the art. Especially today!
