RAIN - the never ending evolution of natureculture

Summary
RAIN is a future environmental disaster, and a mythic story about adaptation in the never ending evolution of natureculture. It is an art based research project aimed towards a political environmental pedagogy, and preparation for a future that is already here
Description of project
– the never ending evolution of natureculture It is raining! RAIN is a future environmental disaster, and a mythic story about adaptation in the never ending evolution of natureculture. Through performances, workshops, readings and an artist book with five chapters and 44 printed cards, this never ending rain continues to fall, and through the falling the conditions for all activities are shaped, changed and transformed. This performative rain is intra-acting with the everyday lives of all life. RAIN is a performative presence during a period of two months in an area of Dalsland, Sweden. The rain falling in RAIN is not a moral natural rain, but rather a rain with agency imposing on every little detail of an everyday life. In RAIN the nature/culture binary is questioned and through performativity rain becomes that which evolves and transforms humans, environments, social relations and whole situations. In RAIN sustainability is embedded and embodied as a survival tactic. RAIN is acting on an invented set of structures and causalities and through that assure us, as artists and educators, that change and transformation is possible. This transformation and invention is part of a “deep time” and Elizabeth Grosz adds “Time, as simultaneously virtual and actual, past and present, will continue in precisely its own way, even without the presence of the human.” The rain will keep on falling with or without us humans.
