In her talk, Petra Kuppers will present ecopoetic disability culture work that engages contact zones between human and non-human others. She will focus on art-based methods of envisioning change, and show that disability, traditionally seen as an enemy to environmentalism (with concrete ramps supposedly damaging pristine wildernesses), can instead offer imaginative ways toward living well in climate catastrophe, unrest, and challenge.
