What's your Avatar?
As we participate in the global mesh network of the energy, not all of us end up as blue whales. By answering a couple of questions at the exhibition, you can find out which animal best represents your personal lifestyle. Is it an elephant, dolphin, cow, perhaps even a cat? Today there is a lot of guilt connected to wasting energy. In a post-carbon world (where energy is fully renewable) we may instead embrace our animal avatars, giving them names and identities of their own. Come and introduce yourself.
New Order series
New Order explores a world in which energy has become a fundamental principle of our society. Five consecutive solo shows feature new works by Dutch and international artists, designers and architects, each responding to various elements of society - such as politics, economy, health, food and experience - which together combine to outline a complete future world.
