About the artist
Anđela Zora Brnas (CRO, she/her) is an earthling in continuous discovery of her caring role(s) within the local ecosystems she inhabits. As an interdisciplinary designer, researcher, artist and workshop facilitator, Zora focuses on re-imagining spatial design as a living, nurturing, multispecies practice. Guided by seasonal, embodied, sensory and non-linear approaches, she aims to create participatory spatial experiences that foster awareness and nurture possible human caring roles within the complex interconnectedness of the local ecosystems.

Topics
The conversation with Zora is a moment for knowledge exchange around human entanglement with the willow ecosystem, ancestral crafting techniques, and the development of non-anthropocentric design methodologies. The session's main themes involve:
- Deconstructing anthropocentric hierarchies: Challenging dominant human-centered perspectives by "composting" traditional design frameworks and learning from the wisdom of local ecosystems.
- The BaskeTree methodology: Exploring a unique spatial design pedagogy that combines imaginative non-human movement, ecosystem mapping, and reflective questioning.
- Material stewardship and co-crafting: Re-weaving the human role into that of a caretaker through hands-on engagement, structural willow manipulation, and habitat-specific artistic research.
