OUT OF THE CAVE (2025 Venice Architecture Biennale)
Principal element of the exhibition panel “Out of the Cave” at the 2025 Venice Biennale: a paleoartistic reconstruction based on paleoecological data from the Late Pleistocene of the Cantabrian region of Spain, onto which elements of prehistory, current and past biodiversity, and symbolic motifs are incorporated to convey a conservationist message.
Out of the Cave, part of the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale, reimagines prehistoric
human life through scientifically grounded paleoart. This visual installation bridges deep-time knowledge with contemporary ecological and ethical issues. By integrating paleoecological data, biodiversity representation, and dietary insight, the project invites reflection on sustainability and modernity. This Backstory outlines the scientific and conceptual foundations of the artwork, offering a model for transdisciplinary practice at the intersection of biology, anthropology, and spatial design.
