(Re)Grounding artists talk
We warmly invite you an online talk with the artists taking part in (Re)Grounding. The talk will be in Ukrainian with English subtitles. Hosted by IZOLYATSIA, D6:EUand D6: Culture in Transit, the talk addresses environmental impacts exacerbated by power-play, politics and appropriation.
From colonialism and occupation, to industrialisation and extraction, to displacement and stewardship of natural resources, the artists’ practices encompass film, installation, biohacking and community dialogue.
Tuesday 18 February | 17:00 (GMT)

More about (Re)Grounding online
The talk runs alongside the (Re)Grounding digital exhibition, featuring artworks created during residencies in 2022-2024 that connect environmental, decolonial, and cultural contexts shaped by mining histories in Ukraine, Cyprus, and the UK.
The exhibition is live until 28 March 2025 and can be viewed here: https://d6.eu/regrounding-online-exhibition/
The projects investigate the impact of industrial activity on the environment, with a particular emphasis on the effects of war, which has left its mark on both the artists and the programme itself. Originally, the programme was set to launch in the city of Soledar, eastern Ukraine — a city now physically destroyed and occupied by Russian forces.
