The Odra River as a living place and the scene of ecological, political, and historical conflicts. Presentation of artistic research by Lucia Bergamaschi and David Přílučík.

The Odra is not only a geographical border between states, but also a symbolic interface between industrial heritage and ecological efforts, between human interests and more-than-human needs. The authors of the research will explain how various laws, ideologies, and material conditions shape our relationship with the river – and how the Odra itself and its more-than-human inhabitants can act, defend themselves, and transform the world around them.

The project is implemented with financial support from the Faculty of Fine Arts, Brno University of Technology.
