The Rehearsal of Space & The Poetic Impossibility to Manage the Infinite

Edgar Martins, João Seixas, John Gribbin, Sérgio Mah

In 2012, Edgar Martins was granted unparalleled access to The European Space Agency (ESA) and its private aerospace partners’ programs. Martins’ project reflects on the wider politics of space exploration, the ever-growing role of science and technology in our society and our relationship with the unknown, whilst opening up wider questions around epistemology, metaphysics and humanity’s conception of itself.

Mrs. Rose Adams, 05.06.1968

Mia Salvato

This artwork examines & reimagines a set of historical images, from the collection of the Archive of Modern Conflict, which were taken by an unnamed US policeman in the 1960s, who produced erotic images of black women in his spare time. It opens up a debate about the politicisation of the representation of the female body, the synchronous histories of anthropology & colonialism & their intersection with the practice of photography.
