Jellyfish and Deep Dreams
Download the full program here.
Join us for a full day of engaging activities, both indoors and outdoors, which will offer fresh air, art, food, music and words and an opportunity to reflect on the stories that shape our relationship with the planet and its diverse life forms.
Drop by the creative workshop in the Studio and create your own jellyfish or write ocean and forest stories. Play an ocean melody with other visitors on artist Eduardo Navarro’s jellyfish that doubles as an instrument. Join a collective listening session in Youmna Chlala’s blue sun chairs and walk with a guide for a collection tour that explores how artists have worked with spoken and written text over the years. Encounter the South American giant otter in the beech wood at Wanås during Swedish artist Ingela Ihrman’s live performance. In the afternoon, experience Finnish artist Tuomas Laitinen's electronic music set, accompanied by dreaming octopuses and wrap up the day with keynote speaker David M. Peña-Guzmán, author of When Animals Dream, who will share his insights on animal consciousness.
Get ready for a day for all the senses! Dress in layers and practical shoes, as many of the activities will take place outdoors in the lush beech forest at Wanås.
