This exhibition unites research, experimentation and creation on our ecological reflections of the region. Porcelain tiles of plants from our local bioregion are backlit to form a beehive. Hexagons depict the water molecule, a powerful element that unites us as humans. Cyanotype drawings incorporating these same plants are layered with the lines of local rivers familiar to us. Dried plant specimens sit among the works, inviting a taste of this place indoors.

This exhibition explores science fiction as a critical methodology to challenge dominant narratives and reimagine futures untethered from linear time. It presents works that merge ancestral knowledge with speculative fiction, opening up space for alternative representations of identity and sovereignty. By inviting viewers to envision new possibilities, the exhibition fosters a collective reimagining of the present through the lens of emancipatory futurity.
