Hybrid Futures

Hybrid Futures: Rhizomes, Meshworks and Alter-Ecologies marks Elektron’s return to the public space of Esch-sur-Alzette with an exhibition that questions the porous boundaries between the living and the technological.

Rooted in con­tem­po­rary philo­soph­i­cal thought, the exhibition unfolds the concept of rhizome theorized by Deleuze and Guattari – this non-hier­ar­chi­cal and mul­ti­di­rec­tion­al underground structure, like ginger roots that spread without a defined centre. It is also enriched by the concept of meshwork developed by anthro­pol­o­gist Tim Ingold, which describes the intertwined tra­jec­to­ries that all living beings trace in their environment.

In col­lab­o­ra­tion with LUGA – Luxembourg Urban Garden, EMOP – European Month of Photography Luxembourg, HEK Basel, Zentrum fir politesch Bildung (ZpB), Université du Luxembourg, Lycée des Arts et Métiers, Centre national de littérature and the co-owner’s association of Centre Mercure.
