Abstract

Celebrating the work of CSER , a research centre based at the University of Cambridge dedicated to the study and mitigation of existential risks, this exhibition at brings together five artists exploring anthropogenic themes to address what is at stake and ways in which we should be looking at the present and near future.

Ground-Zero Earth explores what it means to be human, our relationship with technology and the environment in a bid to find optimism in the study of catastrophe.

In conjunction with the opening night, a panel discussion will take place composed of Bob Bicknell Knight (Artist, Director and Curator) and David Lisser (Artist) Dr. Lauren Holt (CSER Research Associate, Bio-Risk) Dr. Beth Singler (Faraday Institute for Science and Religion and Research Fellow in Artificial Intelligence) moderated by Dr. Adrian Currie (University of Exeter, Research Affiliate CSER ).
