Open Lab Evening: Who is afraid of climate?
© Foto: Vojtěch Veškrna
Climate anxiety is widespread: Many people feel helpless, sad or persistently worried in the face of global environmental change. In Germany, over 55.3% of people are very or extremely worried about the climate - the highest figure in the whole of Europe.
How can we approach climate emotions when climate change simultaneously eludes our cognitive understanding? Dr. Lea Luka Sikau, spokesperson for the Junge Akademie's sustainability working group, provides insights into her artistic research on climate anxiety, sound and vibration. Together with music therapists and psychologists, as well as the Junge Akademie, she is working on exhibitions and new operas on this topic, among other things.
After a short impulse and subsequent exchange, the participants will become active themselves: their own experiences with climate anxiety will be brought into an artistic form and perspectives will be changed. To this end, exercises from speculative fiction will be used and sound islands will be employed
Cooperation
A cooperation with the Junge Akademie, whose supporting academies are the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities and the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina e.V. - National Academy of Sciences - the latter is one of Futurium's partners.
Workshop leader
-> Dr. Lea Luka Sikau, artist, mezzo-soprano and sound scientist, works at the interface of ecology, opera and media art. She received her doctorate from the University of Cambridge and was a fellow at Harvard University. She was awarded the Bavarian Culture Prize for her research. She has worked with Romeo Castellucci, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley, Marina Abramović and Rimini Protokoll, among others. Institutions such as the Ars Electronica Festival, Transmediale and Climate Week NYC have commissioned her as a media artist for art installations and exhibitions. At the ZKM she heads the sound department and curates music and sound art. She has been a member of the Junge Akademie since 2025.
