From administrative hurdles to equipment failure and changing weather conditions, fieldwork can become a tumultuous experience hindering scientific research. In this event, speakers from diverse backgrounds will share their experience and perspectives on planning a successful field campaign. This event is specifically designed for early-career researchers to learn more about the various challenges of fieldwork, and most importantly, how to navigate around them.

In collaboration with the Swiss Polar Institute, Ferme-Asile organises a guided tour of the GRAND NORD exhibition in the company of a scientist and an artist for a polyphonic exchange as they comment on the exhibited artworks and put their perspectives in dialogue.
The tour will be in French only.
The exhibition GRAND NORD unites works by 27 artists, created or designed during artist residencies on sailboats in the Arctic region. Initiated by artist and curator Alexia Turlin, this exhibition is an opportunity to observe how these floating residencies give rise to new ideas and creative processes. Collective and highly personal, these inner journeys are also spatial explorations.
