The Age of. Launch Party!

The Age of. Launch Party: Tuesday 4th of February, 19:00-21:00, Volvo Studio, Västra Trädgårdsgatan 8, 111 47 Stockholm

The Age of. takes the audience on a journey from present day issues of climate change to a multi-planetary future. In the Age of Humans, we view ourselves separate from nature, providing us with a false sense of justification to ignorantly exploit nature.

 The exhibition unfolds in The Age of Consciousness, a near future vision in pursuit of a new design landscape, where nurture nature, nature made and ecological models underpins the ethos of a conscious, symbiotic ecology. Design Studios: Granby Workshop (UK), Cecilia Xinyu Zhang (CH), Kajsa Melchior (SE), OS OOS (NL/CAN), Bolt Threads & Stella McCartney (UK), Seed Health (US), Convivial Project (FR/DE)

 The Age of Entanglements ask: Is it easier for us humans to imagine life on Mars than to take care of life on Earth? What if focus would shift from exploiting space, just as we have exploited Earth, by looking beyond human centered interests? Design Studios: Agi Haines & Nicholas Tamás (UK/US), Cathrine Disney (UK), Fred Erik & Pleun van Dijk (BE/NL), Nonhuman Nonsense (SE), Mariah Wright (US), Pleoforma, Oscar Salguero & Zack Saunders (US), Thomas Pausz (FR), Wang & Söderström (SE).
