The Nordic Alliance of Artists Residencies on Climate Action (NAARCA) announces the launch of its new podcast?TESTING GROUNDS?
The introductory episode will be released on Friday, January 27, 2023.?
As the climate crisis accelerates, how can artists residencies be testing grounds for new and better ways of living and working? A new, 8-part podcast series brings together artists, researchers and activists from across the Nordic region and Scotland to explore this question.
Presented by the Nordic Alliance of Artists Residencies on Climate Action (NAARCA), each episode in the series looks at the crisis through the lens of one artists residency. In the first episode, we travel deep into the Arctic Circle, to Longyearbyen home of Artica Svalbard to hear a conversation between an architect and an anthropologist about how climate change is affecting peoples relationship with their built environment.
The introductory episode of TESTING GROUNDS will be released on January 27, 2023, with new episodes available on the last Friday of each month. To subscribe and listen, visit naarca.art/testing-grounds-podcast/ or search for Testing Grounds in your favourite podcast app.
TESTING GROUNDS is produced and edited by Katie Revell and includes original music by Loris S. Sarid and artwork by Jagoda Sadowska.

ABOUT NAARCA?
NAARCA is a collaboration between seven artists residencies: Cove Park (Scotland), Saari Residence (Finland), Artica Svalbard (Norway), Art Hub Copenhagen (Denmark), Baltic Art Center (Sweden), Skaftfell Art Center (Iceland) and Narsaq International Research Station (Greenland). We are working together to develop, test and communicate new ways of living that are ecologically, socially, mentally and financially sustainable. We believe that artists residencies are exceptional institutions within the arts sector: safe environments for experimentation, where private, professional and public life intertwine.
