All My Relations IV: Nomadic Encounters as PhD course

1 & 2 September 2025: Seminar, Inter Arts Center (IAC), Malmö.
4–6 September 2025: Ecocamp: Three-day intensive workshop with sleepover in Scania. 
17 & 18 September 2025: Seminar, Inter Arts Center (IAC), Malmö.

All My Relations IV is a course and three-day intensive Ecocamp that explores the potential of performative and interdisciplinary practices to trigger transformation in human behaviour and ecological awareness. Artists and interdisciplinary researchers interested in existential resilience, more-than-human encounters, and sustainable development are invited to bring their questions to a laboratory designed to connect art, research, and everyday life.

It is also possible to apply for the workshop as a PhD course of 3 ECTS, which includes four seminars at Inter Arts Center (IAC) Malmö in addition to the workshop. 

Organised jointly by Agenda 2030 Graduate School (Lund University), Artistic Research (Malmö Theatre Academy, Lund University), and Gylleboverket a platform for art and resilience located in the Scania countryside, this course delves into the convergence of interdisciplinary practices and existential sustainability, rooted in a profound understanding of corporality, imagination, being-with, and an exploration towards an extended ecological self.

For its fourth edition, the Ecocamp transforms into a nomadic experience. During the three days walking, travelling, and traversing landscapes will be central to our practice, fostering new connections on the move and reflecting on human nature as one of migration, transition, and relational encounters. Both collaborative and solitary moments on the journey will foster reflection, dialogue, and creative engagement with ecology, interspecies relations, and sustainable futures.

Prior to the workshop, seminars will provide a foundational understanding of key ecological concepts, resilience theories, and sustainability principles, complemented by an overview of the shared curriculum. Through active involvement in the workshop and seminars, participants will develop the ability to critically reflect on themes such as materiality, site and non-site, land, and permaculture, enriching their understanding and application of these concepts in their respective fields of practice and research.
