CANCELLED: Unraveling a map and building a world

Please note

Unfortunately this event has been cancelled due to flight cancellations. All ticket holders will be emailed.

Guided by the hand-drawn map~blueprint~dream, (T_T), that charts the speculative terrain of the exhibition, Dr. Mi You, professor of Art and Economies at the University of Kassel / documenta Institut, and Rae-Yen Song will delve into an exploration of the exhibition's intentions and aesthetics. Their conversation will navigate the complexities of energy flow between organisms, transcending boundaries of time, space, and cultures. Drawing from their own perspectives and personal connections, they aim to enrich discussions surrounding worlding, narrative practice, and the process of un-mapping.
