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.
