Metamorphosis - Ethics and Aesthetics are One - from a Neuroscientific Perspective II
(2025)
Erika Matsunami
This research is an advanced research of Metamorphosis - Ethics and Aesthetics are One - from a Neuroscientific Perspective in 2024. I explore post feminist theory from a new perspective in the 21st century. Thereby I deal with spatiality between virtual reality and physical space theoretically and practically.
Wittgenstein's "Ethics and Aesthetics are one" is the starting point of this research. "In the Notebooks, Wittgenstein states that 'the world and life are one', so perhaps the following can be said. Just as the aesthetic object is the single thing seen as if it were a whole world, so the ethical object, or life, is the multiplicity of the world seen as a single object". (Diané Collinson, The British Journal of Aesthetics, Volume 25, Issue 3, SUMMER 1985, pages 266-272)
Art transcends boundaries of race, nationality and gender. It is a creative act of unifying in the context of humanity, from the subject to the various topics, by asking questions. This point is the lack of "reality" (dealing with reality) from a sociological perspective. But it is impossible to define humanity and reality based on sociological statistics alone–is my perspective of Wittgenstein's "Ethics and Aesthetics are one". Thereby, I examine 'world and life' from the 21st century perspective.

Samtale med Arely Amaut og Tatjana Kolpus
(2025)
Sigrid Espelien
Denne siden har utdrag fra en samtale og er en refleksjon av et samarbeid jeg hadde med Tatjana Kolpus og Arely Amaut fra 24. mai til 7. juni 2024. Vi ville utforske måter å tilnærme oss leirelandskapene med respekt og gode intensjoner, basert på praksiser og kosmologier fra våre forskjellige bakgrunner. Arely og jeg besøkte alle leirelandskapene og ble enige om å konsentrere oss om Bryn ved Alnaelva. Vann og elver og dens betydning for forskjellige lokalsamfunn i Lima er noe Arely jobber med i sin egen praksis, og hun har mange erfaringer og kunnskap å dele.
