Aestetic learning processes can take place in nature for all audiences in connection with the performances. In SENSORIUMS workshops students connect biology and performance, creating their own public engaging performances, examining a sensory and investegative relationship with nature. We collaborate with forest centers, zoological gardens, and art museum to realize the projects in the best possible way to give the students an oppertunity to experience what flock, art and nature can bring to their understanding of relations between people, and nature.
