DBE – A Message from Earth – presented at a Gallery of ideas worth sending to the Moon
At Leiden University, Moon Gallery built a bridge to space. This symbolic bridge - "THE BRIDGE" connects art with the Innovation Center and the Field. The Field represents the Earth with a presentation of artworks, and the Innovation Center symbolizes the Moon, where the Moon Lander will take, among other things, a panel with 99 mini cubes, each containing an artistic idea.
Moon Gallery: The Bridge exhibits 36 micro-art objects selected so far, 9 prototypes and 7 posters representing universal values and human desires imagined and materialized by the artists of the Moon Gallery. Among them is the fragrance #DBE - A Message from Earth, soaked in a piece of clay, with which the authors wanted to influence future space travelers and keep them connected to Earth.
You are invited to attend the online opening of Moon Gallery: Bridge at Leiden University Innovation Center on March 19 from 11 am to 1 pm. Join via Zoom:
