Future Nature
Don gloves and explore the archaeology of today.
Overview
From Aldous Huxley's Brave New World to Ridley Scott's Bladerunner, writers, filmmakers and artists have tried to predict what nature and science will do to one another in centuries to come.
Now, 11 local creatives are giving us their take on the theme for a design exhibition in Sydney. Titled Future Nature, it will be held at the Australian Design Centre (the new incarnation of Object that's taken shape in Darlinghurst), in collaboration with the Australian Museum, from August 28 to October 16. Each designer has taken inspiration from the museum's collection to create his/her own cabinet of curiosities. And they're promising us escapee rabbits, organic telescopes, synthetic crickets and 'active' sculptures.
Future Nature is the result of two years of conversation about bio mimicry and design, which started with Issue 63 of the Australian Design Centre's magazine, Object.
