Speculation and Collaboration as UN/making with Lisa Hirmer

Speculation and Collaboration as UN/making with Lisa Hirmer

This episode of The UN/maker Series features Jill Price talking with interdisciplinary artist Lisa Hirmer about how creatives can help to reduce harm through methods of collaboration and speculation. Sharing insights into a series of independent works such as Mother Trees of Forests Not Yet Here and cooperative projects like Moth Garden with Christina Kingsbury, Hirmer provides listeners with a glimpse into how she relinquishes and shares agency with human and more-than-human bodies during processes of conceptualization and realization so as to reflect the complexity, interconnectedness, and therefore, interdependence of existence. Also interested in time as an agent of affect or change, Lisa poetically expands on the importance of slowing in order to become more into relation with the world around us.

This episode of The UN/maker Series features Jill Price talking with Dr. Kirsty Robertson about how creatives and their industries can help to reduce harm being done to the earth through the arts. Sharing work being done through the Centre for Sustainable Curating and her own research into petrol-textiles, fatbergs and other projects, Robinson helps to point to other institutions, artists and resources, such as USING THE RESOURCES AT HAND: SUSTAINABLE EXHIBTION DESIGN manual, that can offer artists, curators and designers eco-ethical options when moving forward as consumers and makers.
