video excerpt, 10:05min







What does the use of concrete mean in an age characterized by a scarcity of resources and technological progress?

The multimedia exhibition "Concrete Metamorphosis" by the artist collective room69 deals with the facets of concrete and explores its characteristics using various technological media. The exhibition poses the question "How can collectives (re)shape futures?" in a time characterized by ecological crises. 



















The anchor point is the global scarcity of the resource sand, an essential material for concrete production, and thus a metaphor for the accompanying speculative dawn of a future of new building materials beyond the tried and tested.
