Créateurs face à l’urgence climatique (2023)

Conference gathering Claudia Pasquero (ecoLogicStudio) and Nathalie Blanc (head of the Centre des Politiques de la Terre) on the 11th of January 2023, within the framework of the cycle : « Creators facing climate emergency » convened and programmed by the Fondation Thalie in partnership with Ecole des Arts Décoratifs.

How can today’s waste and pollution become a solution to feed and sustain humanity? In what ways can organic and artificial intelligence influence post-anthropocentric architecture? And how can we define the new aesthetics of a post-human world?

Claudia Pasquero, architect and co-founder of ecoLogicStudio, works on the transformation of our lifestyles and urban landscapes through solutions inspired by non-human elements, such as slime mould, microalgae, and artificial intelligence. This conversation with Nathalie Blanc, director of research at the CNRS and director of the Earth Politics Center, will explore their work in favour of an ‘environmental aesthetic’ and new “post-human” architectures that may help us to respond to the climate emergency.

An event co-moderated by Stefano Vendramin, curator of the programme “Creators facing climate emergency”, and Aurélie Mosse, PhD, professor of textile and material design at the École des Arts Décoratifs, and co-director of the Soft Matters research group at Ensadlab.
