'A Dissolving,
A Return'
Exposure HKU 2024
Soon on show at Dutch Design Week from 19 - 27 October 2024!
'A Dissolving, A Return' portrays two futures, in which we have stepped away from our human-centric worldview. On the surface, Etheria and Gaia seem very different - but they're much more connected than they initially appear. These worlds both challenge the widely entertained notion that 'outside of me', means 'less of me', by focusing on the entire biosphere as an intricate network of relationships.
Whereas Etheria is an act of moving forward, into an interconnected digital existence, Gaia is an act of remembering where we came from and returning to the larger ecosystem from which we’ve separated ourselves over time.
With our current world at a turning point, we must change our destructive patterns collectively, and shift into an inclusive posthuman perspective, which may inspire us to take serious action together.
