'Beyond Measure invites us to broaden our understanding and perceptions of what we considered as ‘outer space’. While reaching to time and space beyond the human realm, astronomy is entwined with processes, methodologies, and technologies of and from the Earth.
This exhibition presents multimedia artworks that creatively engages with satellite data, photographic history, lunar exploration, atmospheric systems, time and light - and repositions Earthly phenomena of geology, biota, observation, mapping, and technology as inexplicable from what we consider beyond this world.
Tracing yet diverging from the practices that define astronomy, the artists in Beyond Measure offer alternative perspectives on our relationship with space that in turn shapes how we inhabit the world here and now.'
