What do you consider to be vital to your survival? The air you breathe? The water you drink? The earth that feeds you?
The health of our planet is essential for the survival of all living things, including you. To thrive, we need to build stronger alliances with each other, and with all other species.
Science Gallery London’s new exhibition, Vital Signs: Another world is possible brings together artists, designers and researchers to explore these relationships and how the health of the natural world – from our waterways to our atmosphere and the ocean floor – is intimately connected to our own health and wellbeing.
Revealing unique perspectives on our surrounding environments through creative, sensory works and multiple voices, this exhibition reinforces the fact that humans are fundamentally a part of nature rather than apart from it.
Vital Signs shares the ways people are shaping liveable and hopeful futures, here in London and around the world. It confronts environmental injustices and asks us to consider: what changes could we make if we understand that the planet’s health is an extension of our own?
Jennifer Wong, shares how Vital Signs aims to counter fear and paralysis around climate change by introducing a space to rest and reflect and to be inspired by the actions of others working together to shape more liveable, hopeful futures.
