FIT TO SURVIVE?

 

Curious


PLAY VIDEO

 

Stretching across the northern Pacific an estimated 100 tons of rubbish, held in place by underwater currents, covers an area larger than the United States. Haunted by the grim irony of this plastic continent floating in an ocean Darwin described as filled with "...endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful", Curious ask what species will be 'fit to survive' in the new environments we are creating.

 

Curious was formed in 1996 by Leslie Hill and Helen Paris. Since then, the company has developed a reputation for its edgy, humorous interrogations of contemporary culture and politics, work that has been called as smart as it is seductive. Curious have produced nearly 40 projects in a range of media including live performance, installation, publication and film. Each project starts with a question and the subsequent investigation involves intimate, personal journeys alongside public research and enquiry.
