Drawing from her recent essay collection Death by Landscape, Elvia Wilk joins artist Annika Eriksson and curator Fatima Hellberg in a conversation about shared interests and themes relating to their exhibition In the Shadows of Tall Necessities, currently showing at Bonner Kunstverein. They will discuss the politics of care and cohabitation, consider the way we might cohabitate with other beings, and grapple with narratives that help us rethink the human perspective toward the environment.
