Production Details / Press Releases
The extinction of species, their collective death is an entangled mass grave transformed in time, an event without a monument, without memory or social awareness. The lack of memory of dying individual species of flora and fauna is an archive of silent stories, unnoticed traces, voiceless.
The Museum of the Anthropocene is a death zone – a place where the living and the dead meet and permeate. Its collection consists of the traces of extinct species, the ghosts of animals that were never mourned, future fossils and bodies of those who entered into alliances with technology, plants and beasts. The temporality of the Museum of the Anthropocene oscillates between geological time, the slow violence of an environmental catastrophe and the rapidness of a nuclear explosion. The Anthropocene Museum space will open to the public for the first time on the 30th of June 2022.
