About environmental art
Environmental art is a socially and politically charged art form that concentrates on on the relationship between human beings and nature. It turns attention to the vulnerability and overexploitation of natural environment as well as the problems rising from alienation from nature.
Environmental art recreates reality by providing alternative solutions to finding meaning in regions and landscapes.

Karina Talts
EST
Dancer, therapist
Karina Talts has studied Swedish philology and theatre studies at the University of Tartu. Her doctoral studies at the Department of Cultural Studies at Tallinn University were interrupted due to health problems, but they gave her the impetus to engage in Chinese medicine and oriental practices. Karina has studied Chinese medicine in Estonia and Thailand. She teaches Chinese therapeutic gymnastics or qigong, helps people with qi therapies and instructs Chinese medicine courses at the Confucius Institute of Tallinn University. Karina unleashes her creative impulses in oriental movement practices, from which she has created a spontaneous and improvisational dance style, which she calls qi dance.

TAKKK 2023
TAKKK23 invites you to participate and think along to the topics: relationship between place and person. We explore the connection between space and sacredness - sacred places can be both outside of us and inside of us.
