Contemporary Art Exhibition "Climate Imagination"

The exhibition will feature works by fourteen emerging and internationally recognized foreign and Latvian artists, inviting visitors not only to look, but also to listen and interact - from discovering the hidden life of the forest ecosystem and feeling the rhythm of ocean waves to an invitation to get lost in time or even, for a moment, turn into a human-fly.

The exhibition explores climate imagination as a field of cultural and scientific inquiry where art, technology, and environmental research meet. From microscopic organisms, plant worlds, and botanical fantasy to ecological symbiosis, artificial life, and hybrid systems, the artists use imagination as a critically important capacity to perceive and rethink our relationship with the Earth at a time when climate change is becoming a challenge for the planet's ecosystem and everyday life.

In addition, on 22 and 23 October, the RIXC Art and Science Symposium will take place at the National Library of Latvia and online, bringing together international researchers and cultural professionals this year, offering discussions, artistic experiments, and participatory workshops to jointly explore how art and science can expand climate imagination.

The symposium program is available here.

Advance registration for the symposium is required on the Eventbrite platform.
