Description: (by author)

Sakiya – Art | Science | Agriculture is a progressive academy, a field for experimental pedagogy situated on a rewilded hillside with historic buildings, ancient trees, and natural springs in the village of Ein Qiniya near Ramallah in Palestine. Sakiya’s practices reclaim a wider ecology of knowledges through de-learning, relearning, and learning from and with the land and each other in order to reimagine connections across art, science and agriculture towards self-sufficient futures. Sakiya’s model integrates the forest and the farm within a cross-disciplinary residency program grafting local agrarian traditions of self-sufficiency with contemporary art and ecological practices.
