We live in unprecedented times and will have unprecedented needs. Climate change demands responsive transformations of the social realm, as well as a deep sensorial engagement with the world.
Artists, designers and filmmakers around the world are encouraged to submit their ideas to The Vigil, the second platform of the Chemical (Re)Actions, a project by the Goethe-Institut Chicago.
The submission deadline has passed.
About Chemical (Re)Actions: On Environmental Struggles in Chicago
The Goethe-Institut Chicago presents a new project that enables artistic exchanges responding to critical sites of environmental and social conflict in Chicago. This platform transforms the toxic and educational tours given by local organizations into virtual content as a way to generate engagement with larger questions regarding pollution, industry, the environment, segregation and social equity.
Project concept and coordination by Joshi Radin and Alberto Ortega Trejo.
