Erik Peters

artistiek onderzoek - design - digitale technologie - ecologie - sociaal-maatschappelijk

O&O regeling 2021. Erik Peters is a multidisciplinary artist engaging with the world-building potentialities seeded in the act of storytelling, uncovering how speculative fiction can germinate new universes of being. His research-based practice is situated in the multi-porous web of independence of ecologies and technologies, human and non-human beings. Within his work, queer methodologies are evoked to create multidiscipinary scenarios; imaginative fables staged as spatial and interactive installations, workshops, publications and audiovisual works.

    'How to Wake Up the Ghosts' at group show The Measure of the World

    • In samenwerking met: Radius CCA
    • Locatie: Radius CCA, Delft
    • RADIUS starts the year with the group exhibition THE MEASURE OF THE WORLD, revolving around the ghosts of Western Enlightenment thinking and the relationship between science, truth-finding and the consequential creation of worldviews. With the work of fifteen artists, the exhibition forms a conversation starter for the NATURECULTURES year program and presents a first counterpoint to the current crises that bear witness to the perverse reality of modernism.
