Transnaturel - Wibautstraat, Amsterdam



Transnaturel, an exhibition on nature and technology in the Trouw/Verdieping, Wibautstraat, Amsterdam.

Transnatural


Technology was the means by which we separated ourselves from nature, and escaped its limitations. In the 21st century we try to move beyond the animosity between nature and technology. What will this transnatural world look like? Is this perhaps a next evolutionary step or a changing perception of ourselves and nature? Transnatural is the first of two exhibitions and symposia.
