Unfolding Island Ecologies brings together a collection of essays by artists, curators, and researchers reflecting on contemporary environmental and artistic practices. Set against the backdrop of the Helsinki Biennial 2025, the texts explore themes such as ecological interdependence, extractivism, food waste, material cycles, and the agency of non-human entities. Through case studies, fieldwork, and artistic projects, the contributors examine how islands, both literal and metaphorical, serve as sites for imagining sustainable futures. Together, these contributions offer insights into the challenges and possibilities of working with and within fragile ecological contexts across different disciplines and geographies.
