Space Shelter Earth explores critical and poetic alternatives to space stations and habitats.
It intends to reflect on and interpret what a space shelter could be and mean in different parts of the world, in different cultures, beyond dominant narratives, playing along four “pillars”: shelter in space, sheltering space, sheltering earth, earth as space shelter. An evolutive and flexible art project, it is re-interpreted each time in the different locations where it is hosted, through collective creative sessions using local material as well as items brought or created by the participants in situ. Each shelter/artwork is an ephemeral object/manifestation of ideas and inputs temporarily embodied and made tangible. During the scientific, technological and economic pursuit to understand and occupy space, there are unheard voices in the shadows of the mega-projects that present potential untapped visions and reconnect us with the vulnerability of our current earthly conditions. |
Space Shelter Earth is a project by and in dialogue with artist Marcus Neustetter and curator Annick Bureaud.
