Of The Earth: Earthly Technologies to Computational biologies is an exhibition commissioned by Diriyah Art Futures under the Ministry of Culture Saudi Arabia in Riyadh, curated by Irini-Mirena Papadimitriou.The exhibition design investigates how artificial and organic systems co-evolve, entangle, and reconfigure our understanding of life, agency, and materiality. Inspired by new materialist thinking and post-natural aesthetics, the scenography is a living installation—where machines breathe, plants compute, and visitors become part of the metabolic circuit. The entire exhibition space is conceived as a continuous, constructed landscape—not neutral, but active. It’s a terrain where natural and technological features co-exist, collapse, and recombine. Rather than referencing “nature” as something outside or external, the space becomes its own post-natural landscape—a constructed ecology shaped by reflections, entanglements, and contradictions.
