In their solo exhibition, the duo Elise Eeraerts and Roberto Aparicio Ronda delve into the world of the marsh, where fables and facts intersect.
They develop a landscape of spatial and audiovisual elements grafted onto the Kirkpatrick Marsh (MA, USA). In this marsh, scientists from the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC) investigate how plant and animal species react to fluctuations in CO2, temperature, nitrogen (N) and sea level rise. Global climate changes are simulated there in order to anticipate a new reality. (Source: Kunstverein Arnsberg)

An exhibition as part of the VERSUMPFUNG project

In terms of ecological change, 1250 years is a short time, but this project looks much further back – from sea basins in the region to ice land and forest and moorland landscapes. Artists, ecologists and activists design scenarios and create the space to experience artistic sensitivity and imagination for the ecological past, present and future with a collective performance, four solo exhibitions and a symposium.
