Description:
Using art as a catalyst, BALANCE-UNBALANCE will explore intersections between nature, art, science, technology and society as we move into an era of both unprecedented ecological threats and transdisciplinary possibilities.

One of the main goals of this conference is to develop the role of the arts and artists in dealing with environmental challenges.
