EVENT DETAILS |
Welcome to Climate Cafe! We are friends & neighbors who get together over coffee & talk climate change & what we can do about it together. Our focus is on the social & organizing perspectives: we go to local events, host movie nights, & volunteer with activist groups & mutual aid.
In this art-exhibition-meets-Climate-Cafe, you'll have the opportunity to share your emotions about climate change with a caring, concerned community, while being surrounded by artwork at the intersection of biology, technology, & care. Art has the capacity to resonate with our deepest emotions. This purposeful pairing with the exhibition Embodied Futures & the Ecology of Care at BioBAT Art Space will make for a unique Climate Cafe experience.
We suggest a $5 donation at the door, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Please bring your own mug or bottle if you want coffee or tea!
WHAT TO EXPECT: We'll begin with a Climate Cafe in the gallery (introductions, grounding meditation, then open it up to share our climate feelings), followed by a short gallery tour by curator Elena Soterakis. Afterward, feel free to explore the exhibition, meditate with the work, & continue conversations. The gallery is open until 5:00 pm on Saturday. No previous art knowledge or Climate Cafe experience necessary. Join us!
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION: Located at the Brooklyn Army Terminal, BioBAT Art Space is a gallery dedicated to the field of BioArt in which the border between art & science dissolves. In an era where technology & ecological paradigms are in constant flux, Embodied Futures & the Ecology of Care challenges normative views around care, body, & existence. This thought-provoking exhibition brings together art, biology, ethics, & technology to explore the concept of care as a universal principle that transcends human-centric viewpoints.
Disclaimer: Climate Cafe's are not a form of clinical therapy.
