A Talk at the Kutenai Art Therapy Institute June 13, 2024
Mitchell Thomashow will invite us to explore perceptual reciprocity and environmental learning. Every organism on the planet perceives. “Collectivities” of perception emerge when organisms adapt and coevolve in changing environments. Communities of species (forests, habitats, and even landscapes and the biosphere) perceive. “Collectivities” of awareness are mutually responsive in multiple scales of place and time. Apprehending environmental change requires a deepening of this awareness. This presentation will illustrate these relationships. Participants are invited to engage with the ideas through simultaneous Place Mapping art activities. To register go here: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/kati/1248034/r/web
