Meta.Morf 2018 - A Beautiful Accident
March 8 - May 6
Trondheim, Norway
Placed in economy class, sipping on Piña Coladas, listening to the Beach Boys while blissfully sailing into the ultimate sunset; Is mankind prepared for being thrown out of Tellus’s cockpit, as a product of our innovative nature?
If we have arrived here today, in time and space, as a consequence of life having arisen by chance, as a beautiful accident, then is this still an accident happening, only now with us as its designers? In our apparent urge to reinvent ourselves, the trajectory itself seems just as interesting.
The fifth Trondheim biennale, Meta.Morf 2018 - A Beautiful Accident - will entail exhibitions, conferences and performances presenting international artists, writers, scientists and researchers with an interest in Speculative Design and Futures.
Welcome in March 2018!
- Espen Gangvik
