A research exhibition comprising documentation produced in the C4R activities, as well as artworks and documents related to a localised understanding of resilience. The first edition of the exhibition took place in July 2022 in Bucharest, moving to Sofia in September 2022 in an adapted version and with some works presented in premiere. The third edition in Timișoara shows a selection of works from the previous two editions, alongside new contributions that respond to the context of the project and to Minitremu Art Camp #8 intended for high-school students.
The new iteration of the exhibition expands the different understandings of the concept of resilience – both related to nature’s regenerative (im)possibilities amidst the climate challenges of the current times, and to the different forms of organization in the rural and urban areas based on an ecological, sustainable and communitarian thinking and acting. Apart from the existing research related to mapping several ecologial farms in Romania, the video presentation of 20 more artistic initiatives in nature and the rural, the presentation in Timisoara includes new initiatives and artistic work from the region closer to Banat: Healthy Places, a co-design model for green and social regeneration of community spaces in Timisoara run by Studio Peisaj; a work by Nita Mocanu documenting the results of the spruce bark beetle invasion caused by draughts and destroying the forests in the Apuseni; or Andreea Medar & Mălina Ionescu’s long research into the accidental water leak in Racoti village which has created in time a mini-delta, being the main source of water supply for the local inhabitants.
The exhibition is designed as an informative and learning space activated by the artists invited in the Minitremu Art Camp #8.
