I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN is an interdisciplinary performative project by the artist collective LiLi Re that seeks to give materiality and meaning to the human experience of climate change and loss of nature.

The project is a series of eco-mourning rituals, a performative installation that explores the boundaries of what we permit ourselves to grieve in contemporary society. The first performative action of the project took place in July 2024, with a site-specific traveling performance and a living funeral for and at Engabreen, a part of Svartisen in Norway.

At Gamle Munch the iteration of the project became a performative installation consisting of textile structures, sound, movement and text - all inspired by the ancient art of mourning, lamentation. The project explores the need for collective rituals in an era of eco-grief and celebrates their transformative power.
