About the exhibition

The group exhibition on the annual theme Nature ↔ Data explores the era of the Anthropocene through artistic means.

The term describes a new geochronological age in which humans have become one of the most important influencers of biological, geological, and atmospheric processes on Earth¹ .The Artificial Genesis exhibition takes on the complexity of the subject with unusual and creative artistic perspectivesthat push the boundaries of the expected. It is a reminder of the importance of understanding and preserving nature, of ecology and sustainability, and at the same time a tribute to the imagination and beauty of human creativity.

The exhibition features new and traditional techniques from lithography to photography to computer-generated animation. Represented is a broad spectrum of works from landscape to flora and fauna to humans, from digital maps to GPS-generated drawings to graphics and animations generated from data.
