Mission Ceres- Enkyklios Paideia is a project that combines prose and poetry, photography, video, sound, sculpture, and three dimensional space to create a world that combines human condition and terrestrial landscape through the eyes of artificial intelligence. At a moment of much speculation and reality around our planet, the state of survival and the role of science, technology and spirituality, this series reflects on our existence, our landscape and our destiny through the visual, literary and philosophical aspects of different timelines.
Mission Ceres moves between life as we know it on earth and its possible evolution through the legacy of our machines.
With it’s first timeline going from 1965-2016, and it’s second time line being potentially infinite, Mission Ceres is made up of content donation left by experiments, memories written journals, recorded with cameras and other technological resources that change with time.
Mission Ceres’ foundational book, Mission Ceres, Era Fragments of an Evolving Landscape, Vol I, is the nucleus of the story’s development and is followed by periodical updated editions that continue the literary and visual aspects of the project.
The project currently has over 50 photo composites, 3 short length films, 2 site specific installations, as well as readymade object appendages, and 3D sculpture pieces.
