In this meeting, between artists and experts, discover or learn more about how can artists contribute to the development of new sacralities, new narratives, techniques and rituals capable of initiating a transformative mobilisation in favour of the Earth and Living Things?
“And by ‘sacred’ what I mean is not a great something that you bow down to, but what determines your values, what you would take a stand for. “ wrote activist writer and American sorcerer Starhawk. “We are the nature that defends itself“ is the echo of activists and citizens protesting in favour of threatened ecosystems. If anthropology has demonstrated the existence of myths and rituals in all human societies as a means of interacting with cycles and living beings, how can artists contribute to the development of new sacralities, new narratives, techniques and rituals capable of initiating a transformative mobilisation in favour of the Earth and Living Things?
