Lecture

We are pleased to invite you to a lecture held by the artist Robertina Šebjanič. The lecture will focus on the artist’s work and the installation “Echinoidea Future – Adriatic Sensing,” which is featured in the exhibition “SúnPoíēsis: From Ego- to Eco-Centrism through Art.” The installation explores the biogeological and morphological conditions in the coastal environment of sea urchins, shaped by anthropogenic (human) liquid waste.

Robertina Šebjanič’s artistic practice is based on promoting (Sy)(e)empathy – the development of empathetic strategies for recognizing other (non-human) species. The research was carried out as part of the Zero Pollution Adriatic Residency Program, initiated by the UR Institute within the framework of the STARTS4Water project, and took place in the coastal region of the southern Adriatic.

Robertina Šebjanič’s participation is made possible thanks to the generous support of the Cultural Centre of the Republic of Slovenia in Berlin (SKICA Berlin).
