What we are able to imagine is often linked to what we surround ourselves with, simply put; our environment determines the scope of our imagination. The artists in Polymono Plexusgel share a common interest in generating imaginative landscapes. Whether the point of departure is virtual, visual or bodily – they are all engaged in a kind of world building. By putting materials, bodies, images and ideas together in new formations, they create experiential propositions for potential tomorrows.

These suggestive works and practices open a door to possible worlds, at once fictional and real, in which we might dream together new possibilities of where and how we live.
