Hoffmann elaborated on the project 'Elevation 1049', a site-specific biennial in Gstaad, emphasizing the need to integrate contemporary art with environmental awareness, particularly regarding climate change and the melting glaciers in Switzerland. Hessler discussed her curatorial approach to the exhibition Energies, focusing on how art institutions can address sustainability, rethink material use, and challenge extractive energy economies. She highlighted artistic interventions, such as wind turbine activism in 1970s New York, indigenous energy solutions, and speculative art projects about energy infrastructures. Canell shared her long-standing artistic investigation of energy and materiality, particularly through dust, electrostatic charges, and industrial remnants. She described works like Energy Budget, which visualizes energy transfer through dust particles, and Mother of Dust, a kinetic sculpture featuring pearls on a conveyor belt, exploring transformation and accumulation. She also discussed her fascination with subsea cables, revealing how digital infrastructure is deeply embedded in material and geopolitical realities. The conversation underscored the need for new curatorial models, artistic interventions in energy discourse, and a deeper understanding of material and temporal transformations in the face of climate change.
