superFutures presents Nature’s Depot a work-in-progress
Led by Gem Barton, superFUTURES is a research-led Masters unit at the Royal College of Art that focuses on spatialising futures. The team of tutors and students prioritize worldbuilding and filmmaking as tools to explore the spatial, behavioural and planetary parameters of future Supply Chains.
'Nature’s Depot' is a work-in-progress exhibition showcasing 'future artefacts' that feature in speculative spatial design theses' of the 2024-25 student cohort. This year, design research projects explore the complex changing relationships between trade, nature and their impacts on space.
This is collaboration with the UK government Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).
Cartoon exhibit.
This small exhibition features cartoons from Facing Global Risks with Honest Hope (ASRA, 2024), created by Eugenia Rojo and Ham Khan. These illustrations were shared in honor the legacy of Pablo Suarez—innovator, collaborator, and member of the ASRA network—whose creative spirit and use of storytelling transformed how we engage with risk.
