Radius Cca

RADIUS is a center for contemporary art and ecology in Delft, the Netherlands. On view from 31 May till 24 August: ø WE ARE ALL HOLOBIONTS! ø ALMA HEIKKILÄ: INDIVIDUALITY, IDENTITY, AND RELATED METAPHYSICAL IDEAS We work collaboratively with artists and other stakeholders to tell the urgent and necessary story of climate and systems change by means of art. We do this through a continuous programme, consisting of exhibitions, publications, public events and educational projects. Just as systems are made of fossilised stories, we work together with artists to tell stories that will shape the systems of the near future. Using imagination and climate action, RADIUS focusses on shaping the blueprints for regenerative and sustainable more-than-human worlds. RADIUS is located in the city of Delft and stationed in the pump house and water basin belonging to the Delft water tower, a historical national monument and architectural landmark. With five hundred square meters of subterranean exhibition space, our program is dedicated to the intersection of art, science and ecology. We believe that artists have an essential role in identifying, critiquing and shaping the narrative around climate change and ecological degradation, not necessarily in aiding science with visible solutions but to pose moral and ethical questions around what it means to be alive today. In our program we thus welcome artists and other practitioners that rigorously approach urgent ecological challenges, including climate breakdown, pollution, biodiversity loss, environmental and social justice.
