The Crackling of the Sun invites you to explore a collection of works that blend myth, speculative histories, and imagined futures. It brings together different forms of world-making, drawing on science fiction and new technologies to create a unique experience. You’ll encounter stories shaped by ancestry, cosmology, and memory, all woven into a vision of future-making. This exhibition offers a thoughtful look at how mythologies act as living technologies, guiding us through complex themes like planetary crisis and displacement. Beyond its imaginative scope, the event encourages reflection on kinship and transformation in a changing world. The works challenge conventional timelines, connecting past and future in unexpected ways. Whether you’re interested in art, storytelling, or cultural exploration, you’ll find something that sparks curiosity. It’s a chance to engage with ideas that feel both ancient and urgent, inviting you to consider how we navigate our shared environment.
