The More-than-Planet labs, residencies and commissions are addressing specific questions on the wider topic of cultural-environmental literacy and comparative planetary imaginary. Beside well-established European research and innovation communities in an EU Horizon framework, artists also research European environmental urgencies, yet from more creative, critical, or even controversial perspectives.
