A work-in-progress exhibition and event series exploring disability and access to land, water, air, and life at times of climate emergency. (Hybrid format) Event registration page: www.concordia.ca/cuevents/offices/provost/fourth-space/programming/2024/09/23/ecologies-access.html?c=/next-gen/4th-space/programming
(Join us in person or online by registering for the Zoom Meeting)
As a direct result of centuries of extractivist and exploitative
human activities, habitable areas around the world are shrinking. At these times of climate catastrophe, it is not only bodies that fall ill and become disabled but also lands, waters,
air, and the broader conditions of life that are being harmed and disabled.
Join Access in the Making (AIM) Lab as we explore through research-creation and artmaking how disabled livelihoods
in the Global South and North are responding to climate emergencies accelerated by industries of extraction. Each day we will explore two works-in-progress in detail and discuss the various ways in which the Anthropocene creates conditions for disablement and how we continue to survive regardless.
*ASL interpretation and other access needs requests available via clicking this accessibility form. We kindly ask you fill it out 8 days prior to the event to ensure that we can accommodate.
