This collaboratively artwork is a visual and narrative mosaic of the frst Nomadic Hub of New Genre Arctic Art Education, showcasing a range of working methods from the art-based feldwork week in Karasjok, Sápmi, Norway, where the Nomadic Hub was implemented in cooperation with the Sámi Contemporary Art Center. The artwork tells how art educators, researchers and students from various Arctic regions have come together to explore and address locally significant themes, like meaning of the river , with community members and school through art. The methods included an art gallery visit, collaborative painting, and a performative presentation of the results on the river ice using bodily movements and snowmobiles, environmental portrait photography, carving reindeer antlers, and sculpting water creatures from ceramics and showcasing results as pop-up exhibition for the community in the art center. The starting point was the encounter between local ecoculture and art, inspired by Sami contemporary artists.
