To close sottobosco (climate remix), artist Emma McCormick Goodhart will be in conversation with curator Jordan Carter. They will address and extrapolate from the project's central themes, such as "remote sensing" across millennia and tuning to the ecologies of sensation of prehuman lifeworlds.
Emma McCormick Goodhart [EMG] is an artist, writer, researcher, and dramaturge who experiments across media, timescales, and modes of practice. Interested in fathoming deep-time developments of sensing, especially in sound and scent, alongside technosensory futures, she stages soft architectures, social ecologies, and climate fictions that attempt to retune the spaces that host them. Presentations include Bangkok Kunsthalle, Bergen Assembly, Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Július Koller Society, Kunsthalle Zürich, Le Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris, Nottingham Contemporary, Pioneer Works, Storefront for Art & Architecture, The Glucksman, and the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale. Her writings have been published by e-flux, Flash Art, Frieze, Kunsthaus Zürich (in German Braille), Open Humanities Press, Spector Books, Sternberg Press, and Vestoj, and shared with Adidas’ FUTURE Lab and MIT’s School of Humanities. An Affiliate Artist at the Rose Choreographic School in London, she is among the commissioned artists for Counterpublic 2026.
