zero.zerozerozerozerozerozerozerozeroone is an exhibition created and curated by Tobias Putrih and Ardalan SadeghiKivi from artworks created during the ACT class Creating Art, Thinking Science taught by Putrih and SadeghiKivi, with the support and collaboration of MIT.nano. With 23 works spanning the first and second floor galleries of MIT.nano, this exhibition envisions and scrutinizes ways to intertwine nanoscience and nanotechnology toolsets and visualization methods to extend the bounds of art and culture for a new era that questions the means of presentation, the theatrics of delivery, and the forms of visualizations and gestures carrying out societal and ethical pursuits, unfolding across societal, environmental, scientific, and cultural endeavors based upon the capacity to reveal and read what is unseen.
Location: First and Second Floor Gallery
Encounters: Mist of the Earth
This inaugural Encounters exhibition showcases six prints from Denise Milan's Mist of the Earth series. The work revisits Milan’s deeply humanistic engagements of the past 45 years as an ecological and arts education activist. Her creations draw from her experiences of living with and engaging people of Brazilian coastal villages of Paraty and the dry, desolate lands of Bahia in Brazil’s northeast. Mist of the Earth weaves together memory and history, inviting viewers on a jou rney of imagination and reflection on the environmental challenges brought by development.
