How is it that human beings have adapted and transformed nature like no other species? How did we go from collecting carrion, fruits and seeds in savannas, forests and jungles, to producing millions of tons of grains and inputs to feed billions? How is it possible to grow plants in the most unexpected places... like in this art space? The answers connect various aspects of our biology to knowledge and work. On this tour of Northern Nature, we will reflect on our relationship with nature, considering how humanity has come to where it is.
Cross-cutting tours are visits to Open Art exhibitions with guests from diverse areas other than art, to expand themes and points of reference from other perspectives, perspectives, languages and disciplines.
