What if some answers came to us before we even knew how to ask the right questions? With “Answers Fallen from the Sky to Questions We Don’t Know How to Ask,” Maëva Ferreira Da Costa creates a dialogue between space exploration and meteorites, scientific observation and poetic speculation. Two works, one shared vertigo: shifting our perspective on reality.
“Answers Fallen from the Sky to Questions We Don’t Know How to Ask” brings together two works that draw on real phenomena to shift our perspective. “Unflagged,” a fragile and breathless sculpture, consumes the narrative of space exploration with its light. As words disappear, a blank page invites us to wonder if we shouldn’t unlearn how to possess in order to relearn how to observe. In “Drawing Plans,” fragments of meteorites observed under a microscope become the possible map of an original cometary territory. The infinitely small already contains the promise of life, the unfolding of a terrestrial landscape, and the infinitely large. Between scientific observation and poetic speculation, the exhibition suggests that certain answers come to us even before we know how to formulate the right questions to understand them. As if reality constantly surpasses the mechanisms we put in place to produce knowledge.
The event is organized by the ICB Laboratory, in collaboration with Un Singe en Hiver and the 002f network, as part of the presentation of research and creation residencies.
