At the invitation of the Wilhelmsburg Stoneware Museum, the Stachel artists’ group curates, designs and organizes the exhibition “Dystopoly. A metamorphic transhumanist journey to the daisies” in the historic rooms of the Wilhelmsburg Stoneware Factory of our time”.
Discuss the dystopian states
On an exhibition area of 1,500 square meters, eight rooms in the old attic “in a dissolved form of the canon of rules with the themes ‘Gaia Hypothesis’ and ‘Transhumanism’ become artistic freedom regarding the dystopian conditions of our earth – caused by the cognitive utopias of human civilizations”. it on the website of the Wilhelmsburg Tableware Museum.

The exhibition location was deliberately chosen. “In these historic rooms of the Wilhelmsburg stoneware factory – as humanistic contemporary witnesses of the aesthetics of decay and part of a complex contemporary historical system – former workplaces are still left as if the work had just finished, and they are made accessible to the public as artistically designed rooms .”
Dealing with the aesthetics of decay
The artist group Stachel sees itself as an interdisciplinary, artistic network, which – according to its manifesto – develops and implements artistic projects. The aesthetics of decay as a permanent process of a symbiotic cycle of life is the artistic content and expression of the artist group, according to the self-definition. The location of time in the “now” moment as the sum of all complex, virtual realities is the focal point of the artistic approach.
Since 2021, the Stachel artists’ group has been curating and designing exhibitions in the rooms of the Wilhelmsburg Stoneware Museum, in the first two years “Daisyworld”, since this year “Dystopoly. A Metamorphic Transhumanist Journey to the Daisies”.
