We’re thrilled to have been able to support “My Day in Space,” a children’s art event accompanying The Overview Effect exhibition during Berlin Art Week. The project, a collaboration between the exhibition team, ESERO Germany, the European Space Agency, The Foundry by Bocci, and dieDAS, invited children to create artworks depicting how they’d spend their own day in space, which were then submitted to the ESA.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH YOUR DAY IN SPACE?
An exhibition inspired by the shift in consciousness experienced by astronauts when they look back at Earth. Boundaries disappear, fragility becomes visible, and the interconnectedness of our world comes into focus. International artists and designers explore how design can reconnect people with nature, with one another, and with our shared future on this planet. As part of the programme, children aged 12 and under are invited to imagine and draw their own day in and around a space station. After the exhibition, all drawings will be submitted to the European Space Agency’s “A Day in Space”contest.
The activity ispresented by The Foundry, Bocci, ESA, ESERO, and dieDAS, with special thanks to Lintex.
