How do we imagine living environments in a world facing planetary shifts and ecological challenges? Magical Realism: Imagining Natural Dis/order brings together over thirty artists at WIELS and beyond, offering new ideas and perspectives on the relationship with our planet. The exhibition is an invitation to move away from systems driven by endless growth and resource extraction, encouraging a deeper connection with the many entanglements that shape our biosphere.

Through a large-scale exhibition鈥攊ncluding a section organised at argos鈥攁 publication and a live program including workshops, talks, screenings, walks and performances, Magical Realism reflects an ecology that addresses both the aesthetic implications of our relationship with natural worlds at a tipping point, as well as the social, economic and scientific implications of exploring and shifting our conceptions of the planet.鈥�

The artists navigate different, complementary and contradictory ways of relating to ecosystems and myths of the 鈥渘atural鈥� environment, seeking refuge in dreams and in the raw matter and bare life of the world. At the confluence of analytic and speculative tools, Magical Realism gestures towards restoring connections in a biosphere exhausted by exploitation, dispossession and debt.
