Abstract

Short Paper. Theme: (Re)invented Alliances Sub Theme: Symbiotic Imaginaries

The actual task for disruptive avant-garde art of today should be understood as the decolonization of our imaginaries that perceive nature through the logic of growth and the harmonious model in the direction of shaping post-growth imaginaries for symbiotic futures.
