How does LASALLE’s MA Arts and Ecology programme carry forward the College’s commitment to sustainability, climate justice and structural transformation through artistic impact?

Join this informal and interactive roundtable to hear from the core programme team—Zarina Muhammad, Woon Tien Wei, Wang Ruobing and Cissie Fu—and let their current passions, practices and projects in arts and ecology inspire questions, curiosities and collaborations.

Zarina is an artist-educator-researcher who weaves text, sound, moving image, ritual performance, installation and participatory cartographies to explore spectral ecologies, ancestral technologies and the politics of place.

Tien is an artist-educator-curator who collaborates and interacts with other individuals, collectives and organisations on social and cultural issues to address land contestation, urban legends and social movements.

Ruobing is an artist-educator-curator who examines the complex and evolving relationship between humans and the environment to prompt our collective reconsideration of humanity’s role in a liveable future.

Cissie is a political philosopher who experiments with experiential and transformative systems to compose ideas and actions through technology and the arts that can sustain creative, critical and communal cultural practices.
