PERFORMANCE LECTURE | IS THERE ANY SNOW?, SAHA STUDIO, ISTANBUL

Burcu Yağcıoğlu's performance lecture explores the bacteria called P. syringae as well as the relationship between bio-techno-culture and climate change. The event builds on Yağcıoğlu's eponymous article published on m-est.org in April 2023, exploring snow as a microbiological, historical, touristic, evolutionary, and technological phenomenon. Commissioned for the World Weather Network and with the invitation of SAHA, this series asks: how do artists respond to ideas of change, crisis, and future, focusing on various elements of the weather as an embodiment at the intersection of bodies, peoples, and landscapes? The event will be held in Turkish.
