Stellar Scape

With its deep skies that hypnotize and subjugate, space exerts an unrivalled fascination on the human species. As the Anthropocene crisis shakes our balances (environmental, technological, democratic), the 'Land of Night' is by turns the last frontier to be colonized, a resource to be exploited, a tourist destination, an observatory for remote surveillance, a dumping ground for orbiting debris, and forever the infinite constellation of our original interrogations as well as our (meta)physical reveries.

From the atomic fragment to the great universal whole, the Stellar Scape exhibition brings together some two dozen international artists, researchers and engineers around the imaginaries of astronomy and the revival of space adventures. Through art installations, immersive environments, scientific innovations, speculative projects, we experience this expanding starry landscape, mirroring the cosmic link that connects us in a single space to all those things that appear there not only as they are, but also as they could be.
