🌎 3 NEW INCers Are Going Across the Pond! 🌎

Blessed Foundation is delighted to announce the group exhibition Fields of Vision, opening to the public from 25th July to 19th September 2024 in London. The exhibition features three US-based multidisciplinary artists and NEW INCers: Ai Xia, Jamica El, and Alfredo Salazar-Caro.

Sustainability is a popular topic in the public-facing debates surrounding the field of innovation. However, its integration into the existing mainstream business and political models remains marginal. The term itself is broad and signifies an ethical stand, rather than a defined set of rules to follow. In its principle, sustainability means responsibility and care for the current and future communities and environments in envisioning, design, production and recycling processes. Such an approach stands in opposition to extractivism, a mass removal of resources for financial profit.

While the net-zero carbon emission goal set in the UK for 2050 might give the impression that sustainable practices are yet to be invented, the Fields of Vision exhibition highlights existing solutions spearheaded by three artists: Ai Xia, Jamica El and Alfredo Salazar-Caro. Their work points to three considerations crucial for sustainable production - purpose, possibilities and imprint - of an individual, community and nature.

Opening night is 24th July 6-8:30pm - link to register here
