Exhibition INHABITING CRACKS AT THE END OF TIME - AGAINST ACCELERATIONS

This art and photography exhibition at the Tankturm explores the border as a space and time of apocalypse, serving as a site where contemporary colonial-capitalist modernity is created through the displacement of language, territory, and identity. Featuring the creative practices of 2026 CAPAS fellows Federico Cuatlacuatl and Luis Hernan, the exhibition disrupts the colonial logics that constrain our imagination of alternative futures by focusing on (moving) images of apocalyptic experiences. From the forced self-displacement of individuals to the destruction of ecosystems justified by utopian promises, the works delve into the affective level of the apocalypse and the creation of "non-places" that act as gateways to other worlds. By standing at the borderlands, this immersive event invites visitors to look at the future differently, transforming socially relevant research into an emotionally accessible dialogue between the artistic and academic worlds.
