In this multifaceted exhibition, different ideas and areas of knowledge meet in the exploration of how a symbiotic thinking can inspire change and bring forward new ways of understanding the world.
By applying a symbiotic perspective on contemporary and future events and challenges, we allow different methods and analyzes to interact in order to create new images and stories of a complex present and future.
Symbiosis is an exhibition, but also an experimental platform for imagining and shaping a symbiotic thinking, through art, theory and conversation, where different themes provide various points of view.
The ambition of the exhibition is to make visible how artists, architects and researchers approach the concept of “symbiosis” based on different themes. An imaginative, inspiring and thought-provoking exhibition that openens our minds to how complex and fascinating our world is, while at the same time providing a reasoning about challenges and opportunities in our rapidly changing time.
Talks, lectures, discussions and workshops take place throughout the exhibition period.
The exhibition consists of theory sections with examples and illustrations produce in collaborations between for example researchers and artists, as well as works of art that freely relate to the issues.
