“Spatial Dimensions in Heritage | Creative Research Capacities” 

Join us for the upcoming T4EU Transforming Heritage Conference “Spatial Dimensions of Heritage | Creative Research Capacities”, organized by EKA on 27–28 January 2026 in Tallinn. This convergent event delves into the complexities of heritage preservation and embodied knowledge, from the tangible layers of paint on walls and canvases to the intangible realms of conceptual techniques or digital multidimensionality enriched with metadata.

The conference itinerary is available as a PDF below (3 pages).

The conference aims to bridge diverse disciplines, encouraging contributions from architecture, art, design, digital humanities, history and beyond. It will explore how ephemeral site-element-context relationships impact cultural heritage and emerging technologies—like AR, VR, and 3D modeling—can enhance preservation efforts.

The conference welcomes diverse perspectives with sessions to address participants across disciplines, including the arts, humanities, and sciences, with an emphasis on two main topics: spatial and artistic research in the context of heritage. The topics are meant to connect advanced research concepts with practice-based conceptual applications aiming to foster interdisciplinary dialogue. Inviting insights from varied academic and professional backgrounds to deepen our understanding of both cultural heritage and artistic research.
