Here Comes the Sun: art, energy and natural intelligence

6 February — 5 April 2026

This new exhibition questions the logics of automation that underpin contemporary algorithmic systems.

The three featured artists seek to reimagine automation by moving away from the extractive logics of traditional algorithms. Instead, they draw inspiration from the rhythms and balances of the living world: solar cycles, ecological processes, and the distributed forms of intelligence found in ecosystems.

Artists:
James Bridle
Alice Bucknell

Organised by Cercle Cité, with support from the Luxembourg City Film Festival and Ministère de l’Environnement, du Climat et de la Biodiversité.
