CABINET OF FUTURES 24 August - 24 November 2018 // Exhibition Venue TBC
c. Time’s Up – Artist: Time’s Up
The Austrian art and culture group Time’s Up engages the public in playful experiences designed to explore alternative, preferable futures. Over the course of their stay on the Maltese Islands, this radical team have brought internationally renowned futurists, local experts and everyday citizens together through communal workshops; during these creative meetings, participants have shared imaginative scenarios, dreams and concerns that explore diverse visions of the local future. The year 2018 sees people’s ideas come to life through the resulting site-specific exhibition, Cabinet of Futures. This immersive, walk-through exhibition creates a ‘proto-scientific’ laboratory atmosphere, inviting local individuals and communities to add their own touch to the scenario. With constant creative exchange from all walks of life, the hypothetical futures presented become sites that are continuously evolving into richer and ever-more tangible worlds.

Matul id-durata tagħhom fil-Gżejjer Maltin, dan it-tim radikali għaqqad flimkien futuristi magħrufa internazzjonalment, esperti lokali u ċittadini ordinarji permezz ta’ workshops komuni; matul dawn il-laqgħat kreattivi l-parteċipanti qasmu flimkien xenarji, ħolm u tħassib li jesploraw viżjonijiet diversi tal-futur
lokali. Is-sena 2018 tara l-ideat tan-nies jieħdu l-ħajja permezz tal-esibizzjoni speċifika tas-sit Cabinet of Futures.

Bi skambju kreattiv kostanti minn kull aspett tal-ħajja, il-futuri ipotetiċi ppreżentati jsiru siti li jevolvu kontinwament f’dinjiet aktar rikki u aktar tanġibbli.
