INTER:ACTIVE talk with Cecilie Waagner Falkenstrøm
Drawing parallels between the historic gold rush and today’s commercial space race, Falkenstrøm’s ‘Celestis Obscura’ investigates the hidden power structures shaping asteroid mining and lunar exploration. As private corporations push toward extracting cosmic resources, the work asks: Who owns the resources of space? Which power dynamics determine who is allowed to exploit them? By merging artificial intelligence with real cosmic data, the artwork questions whether the economic inequalities of Earth are poised to be reproduced across the solar system.
Cecilie Waagner Falkenstrøm will be present and give a talk about the piece on the 16th of March from 18.00 – 19.00 at Kunsthal Charlottenborg by the entrance to the Inter:active exhibition. Attendance is free but with limited capacity, reserve your ticket.
