A Single Universe
Ready for a voyage through space and time? The exhibition by the artist and filmmaker Pauline Julier (*1981, Geneva) is an intergalactic tour, leading us through the geological ages of the Earth all the way to space. We visit a 300-million-year-old forest in China as well as a mountain range on Mars. Past, present, and future dissolve until we lose our bearings. But this confusion is intended and challenges us: How far are humans willing to go to exploit the resources of Earth and other planets? How can we remain creative and optimistic in the face of climate change?
Pauline Julier questions the relationships between humans and the environment: In this “single universe” all living beings are interconnected. With immersive video installations, the artist links scientific discoveries with rituals and myths. Between documentation and fiction, she invites us to share our gaze with the world rather than throwing it at the world.
