Forensic Architecture's Schuppli to Detail Climate Justice, Ice Evidence in Tenerife
This Saturday, TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes will host researcher Susan Schuppli for a lecture titled "Cold cases," exploring the convergence of artistic research, climate science, and environmental justice, with a focus on ice as a record of climate change.
This Saturday, TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes in the capital of Tenerife will host an event exploring how artistic research, climate science, and the fight for environmental justice come together.
Renowned researcher Susan Schuppli, known for her work with Forensic Architecture and as director of the Centre for Research Architecture at Goldsmiths, University of London, will give a lecture called "Cold cases." This event highlights the growing importance of using many different approaches to tackle the climate crisis, especially when it comes to holding people accountable.
The session will be in English with simultaneous translation. It will focus on climate justice and how ice can act as a physical record of environmental changes. Schuppli will present a view of climate justice that emphasizes the evidence and connections that ice can provide. This idea is especially important because the cryosphere – the world's ice and snow, which she studies – is changing rapidly, becoming a silent witness to our planet's transformation.
Susan Schuppli's career includes fieldwork and making documentary films. This places her at the heart of environmental struggles, climate science, and communities affected by climate change, with a special focus on the cryosphere. Her connection to Forensic Architecture strengthens her research approach of using physical evidence.
The event starts at 12:00 PM, and entry is free until the room is full.
