The Un_imaginable project invites a range of artists and writers to investigate the unimaginary and explore the unique qualities of its terrain. Recent occurrences in different spheres of life from the ecological to the judicial have redefined our notion of the unbelievable. While maintaining continuities with a long history of the irrealisable, this new unimaginary confronts us with radically diverse realities, reformulating the condition and expression of life itself, explored in the exhibition Un_imaginable.
