Earth Wasn’t Always Called Earth
This monument to healthy soils takes the form of three stacked spheres, symbolizing the three fundamental layers of soil—topsoil, subsoil, and parent material. Rising like a geological column, the sculpture highlights the hidden yet essential foundation that sustains life above.
Positioned within the zoo, the structure serves as both a landmark and an educational piece, inviting visitors to reflect on the often-overlooked world beneath their feet. Its form speaks to balance, resilience, and the layered history embedded in the land we stand on.
A collaboration with Dr. Martina Modic, Institute Jožef Štefan, and artist Brad Downey

SPACESHIP FROM HOPE
luka murovec
Spaceship from Hope envisions co-existence as a framework for sustaining human and non-human life on Earth. This multidisciplinary exhibition challenges the capitalist paradigm of growth, advocating for "degrowth" and symbiotic living.
Through spatial narratives and material explorations, it reimagines the built environment as a site of interspecies dialogue and resilience.

This permanent sculpture, part of documenta fifteen, stands in Karlsraue Park, adjacent to the Kassel Art School's Department of Sound. At 2 meters tall, the metallic form houses high-definition speakers and a subwoofer behind a perforated steel panel, broadcasting curated audio works. The integration of sound transforms the space, merging visual and auditory experiences.
Part of Direct Media and the Department of Sound at Kunsthochschule Kassel, it engages with media-specific practices and connects to a series of publications with the Research Network for Philosophy and Technology.
