We mobilise people and resources to create, curate, make sense of and use knowledge to inform policymaking across Europe.
When we are unfair to nature, it is very often because we simply do not understand it. Shall we ever be able to grasp the complexity of our climate, of this whirling blue ball that is the Earth? Or is it simply beyond our grasp to understand her staggering complexity?
If it is, we might be doomed to always harm other living beings or the lifeless surroundings they live in. Can we stop activities that will provoke as much harm as an earthquake? Can we even think of fairness if we look at the earth always from our point of view, as if the other living beings and the nature they live in didn't exist? Can we even be fair?
We put sculpture and SciArt together to capture the world's incessant motion and fluidity. Kim De Ruysscher's marble sculpture breathes a feeling of stillness, a frozen memory of the ocean fixed in stone. Evelina Domnitch and Dmitry Gelfand create flows of water over this stillness, evoking the enormous power of the Earth's axial rotation. A double ocean, one in stone, one in flowing water.
The sculptor as translator, who raises the unknown to the known, can show us rich lodes of stones and rock that live. He can show us the traces of the past that contain surprising messages for the present or the future. With the experiment of sculpture combining with SciArt, the sculpture wants to uncover the ancient fluidity of the stone with the possibilities of modern science. It evokes the swirling of air and clouds in our atmosphere.
