Nottingham Contemporary's sci-fi exhibition 'Our Silver City, 2094' envisions climate futures through collaborative art

The exhibition 'Our Silver City, 2094' at Nottingham Contemporary is open until 18 April, imagining Nottingham transformed into a silver metropolis due to climate change. Artists Céline Condorelli, Grace Ndiritu, and Femke Herregraven collaborated on this project, which looks ahead 72 years to alleviate climate anxiety. The show showcases various media, such as Anthony McCall's 1972 video 'Landscape for Fire' and Zara Zandieh's 2021 piece 'Octavia's Vision.' Condorelli's textiles investigate color creation, while Ndiritu's 'The Temple' encourages community through handmade sculptures. Herregraven's 'Wet Spells' features a sensory weather lab. Historical maps from the 1800s to the 1980s are included, highlighting spiritual practices that promote community resilience without pressing for immediate action.
