This exhibition revolves around the question: 'what could a garden in the new age of the Symbiocene look like?' The Symbiocene is the new era where we collaborate with the world around us, instead of exploiting her. Experience a garden full of projects that symbiolize this new era.

The dream of multispecies

This exhibition takes you on a tour of wonder. Time travel with us to the era of the Symbiocene. We will guide you to a time where we use data to help insects deal with climate change, where human structures provide owls with houses and where we stroll through our garden on mycelium grown shoes.
