Amidst the turmoil of climate change, this project provides a revaluation of ecological art in the 1960/70sUS counterculture. Building on research into the cultural output of the counterculture, this research willconsider notions of 'systems ecology' and eco-art such as the Harrisons' Survival Pieces and Bonnie OraSherk's Crossroads Community, alongside contemporary posthuman philosophy which challengesdominant political and epistemological environmental discourse. This project focuses on education andcommunity activism, considering how countercultural eco-art intersected with wider political and protestmovements in order to reimagine and reshape modern society. Exploring the political, social, andphilosophical implications of community education in eco-art will allow for reconsiderations ofenvironmentalism's relation to capitalism, settler-colonialism, and the contested notions of 'human' and'nature' - questions essential to building futures beyond ecological catastrophe.

在气候变化的动荡中，这个项目提供了对1960/70年代美国反主流文化中生态艺术的重新评估。基于对反主流文化的文化输出的研究，本研究将考虑“系统生态学”和生态艺术的概念，如哈里森的生存作品和邦妮奥拉舍克的十字路口社区，以及当代后人类哲学，挑战占主导地位的政治和认识论环境话语。该项目关注教育和社区行动主义，考虑反文化生态艺术如何与更广泛的政治和抗议运动相结合，以重新想象和重塑现代社会。探索生态艺术中社区教育的政治、社会和哲学含义，将使我们重新考虑环境保护主义与资本主义、殖民主义和有争议的“人类”和“自然”概念的关系--这些问题对于构建超越生态灾难的未来至关重要。
