The Elastic Spaces SSHRC Connection funded project, Thinking Allowed, brings together a network of artists, curators, scientists, students and community members coming with expertise from different branches of knowledge – artistic, scientific and Indigenous – to address urgent issues around social justice and the environment. Using both new and traditional practices, this group of interdisciplinary and intergenerational researchers work together towards delineating the intersections among the entangled problems of climate change, clear-cutting of old growth forests, human displacement, settler-colonialism and racism.
Join Thinking Allowed for a 3 day colloquium that will include conversation panels, talks, and workshops, and screenings! For all offsite activities, please visit the Elastic Spaces website and you can register for the offsite Saturday activities here!
