Peatlands and Art meet at the Ecotone exhibition

Gustaf Granath worked with the artists of “Ecotone: transition area between biology and art”. The term “ecotone” is used in ecology to describe a border where two ecosystems meet and create a new species-rich area. What happens when peatlands and art meet? The resulting ecotone was on exhibition at the Uppsala konstnärsklubb for the period 21-29th October 2023. Collaborating artists and researchers: Malin Franzén, Hanna Norrna, Ida Lindgren, Amanda Selinder, Ioana Onut Brännström, Gustaf Granath. Poster of the exhibition at Uppsala konstnärsklubb.
