Futurity is a condition of the future that maintains a close connection with the present moment in which it is enunciated. In Futuritat, this connection unfolds as a vector running through the desires, needs and probabilities that this life of materials will come about as we imagine it.
This vector also runs through the philosophical, scientific, anthropological, aesthetic and social implications of the history of materials, a multiplicity of disciplines that reinforce its function as a medium.
Because of this quality of mediation, materials configure our scenarios, determining what happens there; if we are not aware of their capacity to do so, they can further determine our ways of living in the world.
Futuritat: la vida dels materials is an exhibition about design with biomaterials and how to produce them, as well as new materials developed in the laboratories of the UPV, highlighting the links between art, science, engineering and innovation. Through all of them we will find clues to tell us about the life of materials and our own life in the future.
