How human beings can design digital tools for a sustainable use of resources? What role can technology take on in terms of developing a biocentric worldview?
The exhibition presents artistic positions that deal with these issues and vision solutions for urgent environmental issues such as extreme weather phenomena, the littering of the oceans by accumulations of plastic, the loss of biodiversity, and the extinction of species. Through a creative use of digital media and new technologies - AI, VR, interactive and immersive installations, multimedia sculptures and video installations – audiences are invited to engage critically, to question the notion that humans are at the center of creation, to abandon an egocentric perspective on this planet. From geology and meteorology to oceanography, many of the works in the exhibition are based on an interdisciplinary approach and the collaboration of artists with scientists from a wide range of fields.
