movement as liberation

The Liberated Planet Studio (LPS) gathers artists, activists and academic collaborators for creative experiments to attend to the nature and climate emergencies with collective movement, art making and writing. Since 2023, LPS programs have provided rehearsal space and a free workshop series for those interested in ecological inquiry and somatic pedagogies that engage questions of social and environmental justice. Inspired by under-explored aspects of artistic practice and the role of performance in environmental research, teaching and learning, LPS artists focus on collective methodologies and movement practices to mobilize discourse about the intersections of human and animal experience and our intercultural struggles for socio-ecological liberation.
