ARCHIVE AD ASTRA is coming to Yuri’s Night!

Objects of Space Enthusiasm is an ethnographic exhibition of the personal belongings of the space community, led by Adryon Kozel, a PhD candidate in Anthropology, and co-curated with their research participants from different space communities in the US and Europe. The exhibition forms an integral part of their doctoral research as a member of the ERC-funded project ETHNO-ISS.

ARCHIVE AD ASTRA explores at its heart how ‘enthusiasm’ can be conceptualised as a social, vital energy that can be circulated between people, place, and things, and materialised through personal belongings.

The exhibition offers answers to how one incorporates outer space into everyday life, by centring mundane yet precious objects which embody, represent, and facilitate dreams, beliefs, and experiences which bring space and possible futures closer to home. Collectively, these objects provide a kaleidoscopic, fragmented, incomplete, and messy glimpse into the material, embodied practices of cultivating a sense of self in relation to the space community and the universe.
