This is done through artistic, scientific and legal expressions: intersecting science and law, reason and style, art and judgment, policy and imagination. After two years of deep inquiry, research and co-creation, which began with a summer school at the JRC in 2022 and continued with artistic residencies in 2023, these art and science works provocatively call to be contrasted with pieces of natural and cultural heritage. From global oceans to water flows, from contamination and bacteria to climate tipping points, pollinators, and landscapes of natural hazards; from natural and artificial intelligence to non-human values, forests, lands, soils, composting; from grief and mourning to rituals, wonder and collective action. This is the creation of 15 artists, working together with JRC researchers and the SciArt team, also involving EC policymakers with a keen interest in the topic. The result: nearly 50 people currently joining forces for NaturArchy.
