Barents Spektakel Collaboration with Pikene på broen, Kirkenes 2024-2026
In the fall of 2024 WONA established a collaboration with Pikene på broen in Kirkenes, which resulted in eight WONA members participating in the Barents Spektakel 2025. There, WONA organised the panel discussion "Remote Control: How do Biennales foster resilience at remote locations?" as a prelude to the research group's newly initiated research project. Additionally, WONA members participated in several conversations and a panel related to the festival exhibition in collaboration with Biocultural Heritage in Arctic Cities: Resource for Climate Adaptation (ARCA). As part of a collaboration between Pikene på broen and Kunstpodden, two of the artist talks led by WONA members were turned into podcasts and published via Kunstpodden: Real. Arctic. and Remote Control.
