Trace worked in collaboration with MIT, Studio Tomas Saraceno and the EAPS folks in Zurich to celebrate and tell the story of Aerocene, a visionary project led by Tomás Saraceno. It is a story of how human beings will navigate around the world free from borders and fossil fuels.

The exhibit was comprised of geometric shapes to create a series of endlessly possible configurations. Each geometric frame embraces informational data furnished by EAPS and artwork provided by Studio Tomas Saraceno. Media and animations were created by MIT, Mystic Scenic Studios built and installed the exhibit.

The way we rise is a statement and question worth thinking deeply about. Tomás Saraceno is using curiosity artistry, science, humanity and immense creativity in exploring an answer.
