The uncertainties of air and the
interactive possibilities of clouds – both real and virtual. The atmospheric matter and the assemblage of data present a new
kind of environmental consciousness connected by the cloud. Art, science and technology merge into multisensory experiences
exposing philosophical, ecocritical and poetic connections in the atmosphere. This
talk expands on Josefina Nelimarkka’s research and process-based works.

Josefina Nelimarkka
Josefina Nelimarkka is an interdisciplinary artist.
In her work she explores the in/visible and its perception in relation to the politics of air and future scenarios of climate
change in collaboration with climate scientists, paleoclimatologists and nanoengineers. Continuous process, performativity
and real-time climate data bring forth the momentary time and the sensitivity of the environment.
