    Maria de Lima, Flick Monk and Giulia Gregnanin in conversation

    A panel on learning from indigenous knowledge and galvanising communities around community power (both literally and metaphorically), with artist-filmmaker Maria de Lima, public energy campaigner Flick Monk, and Timespan Curator/Director Giulia Gregnanin. Bios: Maria de Lima is a Brazilian-British artist currently based in Glasgow, working across video, installation and painting. She approaches video through a feminist lens to explore the many value systems embedded in language. Focusing on translation between Portuguese and English, she explores how the legacy of colonialism and its resistance leaves traces through the words people use.     Flick Monk is a Community and Public Energy Campaigner at Platform. Currently based in Glasgow, she mostly grew up in rural Galloway. She previously worked at Friends of the Earth Scotland on fracking and divestment. She has an MSc in Environmental Studies from Antioch University in New Hampshire where she researched community energy.      Giulia Gregnanin is the Curator and Director of Timespan, Helmsdale. Her research interests intertwine decolonial perspectives with ecological discourses and feminist theories, particularly converging on counter-narratives of collective resistance.
