The Co-Ecologies Fabrica AW2023-2024 The program addresses issues related to the Anthropocene, envisioning a not-so-distant future in which the human race will become aware of its co-dependence with the environment, and cooperation between different disciplines will provide new solutions to the stagnation resulting from the climate crisis. The biological, geological and ecological processes that the latest technologies and contemporary artistic practices are using to devise alternative ways of life and coexistence on our planet will be debated throughout the semester.
The final residency exhibition Blooming in Embers is a journey that testifies to the possibility of a rebirth of hope and light, while negotiating between forms of resistance based upon mutual giving and elemental forces of destruction and everlasting circularity.
The exhibition explores the realms of future interactions, contemplating the prospect of a post-human world, beyond anthropocentric barriers while considering the Earth and its beings interdependent. It serves as a tribute to the collaborative spirit fostered by 17 international artists brought together by a shared desire to create, physically move to new spaces and embrace vulnerability and flexibility in ideas, practices, and ways of knowing.
“Blooming in Embers” invites the viewer to experience the beauty driven by change and becoming, while building a new interconnected and interspecific reality.
