DESCRIPTION:Through waterworks and treatment plants\, people seek to contro
	l water as much as\npossible. But what we call ‘contaminated’ or ‘clean’\,
	 can mean something quite\ndifferent to other forms of life. A sink full o
	f soapy water can be far more\ntoxic than a flushed toilet. In Fluid Futur
	es\, artists explore the complex\nrelationships between humans\, technolog
	y and aquatic ecosystems.\n\nFrom micro-organisms and seaweed cultivation 
	to wastewater treatment and\necological restoration: water connects life f
	orms\, technologies\, infrastructures\nand communities. By revealing these
	 connections\, the artists respond to urgent\nclimate issues and challenge
	 us to imagine regenerative futures in which people\,\ntechnology and aqua
	tic ecosystems can flourish together.\n\nWith works by Michael Pinsky\, Ma
	rc Vilanova\, Linda Zimmermann\, Nassim\nVersbraegen & Joni De Borger\, Er
	ic Klarenbeek & Maartje Dros (Klarenbeek & Dros)\nand Kerrie O’Leary.\n\n\
