Transcendence
2022 - 2024
While since the dawn of time humans have always relied on divine fate, science has recently made us realise how much our daily choices are defining our future world. Faced with the dilemma of losing our immediate comfort or our lasting well-being provided by our ecosystems, we could then wonder which path to choose. How can we improve our resilience? Is it a good idea to wait for technology to be our saviour? Or should we just opt instead for degrowth? How will we achieve a form of transcendence with the living world surrounding us?
Based on those reflexions, Transcendence aims to portray a young generation lost between eco-anxiety and the desire to initiate deep changes. Inspired by eco-feminist theories that urge us to go beyond useless and damaging boundaries as genders and speciesism, this project invites us to slow down, look around and reflect on which world we want to live in.
