Just imagine an ecosystem! is the third event in the Planetary Health series, in which Kunsthal Aarhus presents artistic and scientific perspectives on one of today's most important topics: the condition of nature and its impact on humans and all the life we share with other creatures. The series is produced in collaboration with the A Mock Book publishing house and curator Jacob Lillemose.
