NAHR Italy and California 2026: This call for
proposals seeks ideas that address our environmental problems while revealing the histories, structures, and transformations
of minerals.
MINERALS - Our
(in)organic Roots
Our (in)organic roots finds its deep meaning in the prolific nature
of minerals as scaffolders to all living and non-living matter. Minerals are at the heart of numerous ecological, cultural,
and technological processes: from the life-sustaining mineral salts within our bodies, to the crafting of our landscapes,
the precious gems symbolizing wealth and power, and the rare earth metals which govern computer processing power.
