As Above, So Below
Curated Conversations


Saturday 9 May 10:30-14:00

Marking the public opening of the exhibition, this programme activates the space for the first time through shared presence, dialogue, and collective experience. Conceived as a symposium day of curated conversations, it extends the spirit of the podcast into a live, collective setting. Bringing together artists, scientists, thinkers, and regenerative practitioners, it unfolds as a series of dialogues that move fluidly between disciplines, perspectives, and forms of knowledge. Inspired by ongoing exchanges developed through the As Above, So Below podcast series, these conversations form a living platform—where listening, reflection, and encounter shape an evolving space of inquiry. Positioned between land and sea, the programme invites deeper engagement with the ecological, cultural, and perceptual conditions that define our present. At the intersection of art, science, technology, and ecology, it explores how transdisciplinary approaches can contribute to planetary well-being—fostering connection, shared understanding, and new possibilities. Ultimately, it is an invitation to imagine regenerative futures, extending thought and practice beyond the moment of gathering toward more enduring forms of coexistence and renewal.
