Urban Undercurrents: The Hidden Infrastructure of Wild Cities

Urban Undercurrents: The Hidden Infrastructure of Wild Cities Past Event

Presented by Urban Undercurrents RMIT University


Urban Undercurrents is an interdisciplinary performative laboratory that roams the city tracing the human and more-than-human entanglements of what lies beneath the city and its culture. It asks: What happens when climate action goes underground? How do government and industry agendas reverberate beneath our feet? What are the wild undercurrents and hidden infrastructures coursing all around—how do we encounter feral ecologies, contaminated creativity and stray ethics? And how do we make space for conversations and rituals that create the conditions for regeneration and wild life? As an artistic intervention, speculative proposition and community discussion, this event takes place in the Collingwood Yards courtyard inviting the audience into an experience of the city’s metaphoric and literal subterranea.
