Our entire lives are embedded in space; we are constantly surrounded by it, affected and shaped by it.

Space serves as a storage media and is testimonial of the cultural fabric in which we live.

Space is a prominent aspect of humanity’s existential nature - a basic requirement for our exploration of the world.

Space is changing with a visceral sense of land shifting under our feet. Current systems amplify this fragility.

**We need to create ecosystems where participants are given time to develop in and with the surrounding environment.**

**Only then can we adapt to its change.**
