Abstract: This exhibition takes us to the year 2055, to a planet where ecosystems and peoples are thriving. It highlights innovations that respect Earth's limits and serve the well-being of all communities—human and non-human alike.And yet, today, an ecological and climate disaster is underway. Innovation—often reduced to technological innovation—is presented as a miracle solution, when in reality everything is connected: our lifestyles, the climate, geopolitics, the economic system, freshwater shortages, and more. Trying to solve one problem without thinking systemically doesn't make sense.So how did we get there? In this fictional and "desirable" future, what does it mean to innovate? What questions does it raise for research, technology, and engineering? This journey through time opens up a new imagination—one that motivates and inspires optimism.
