Bushel - Forum for Radical Imagination on Environmental Knowledge (FRIEK)

Interactive Artwork

FRIEK Curatorial Team

Bushel is a wandering assembly of trees, and life-sustaining artwork, partly atoning the negative externalities of an international summit, and partly a proposition: can biodiversity regeneration can be viewed as an artistic gesture? Those of knowledge, academic, non-academic, embodied, radical, poetic, rational, and those of ideas in the process of shaping knowledge yet to come. In the spirit of Joseph Beuys, let us grow our imagination from within the roots.
