How do patriarchal narratives shape our understanding of evolution, nature and coexistence? Which notions of adaptation, competition, cooperation and change determine how people observe, describe and ‘construct’ knowledge about the world?


Under the title NOTHING FITS FOREVER – Evolution, Art and the Stories We Live By, Eva Meyer-Keller brings together female artists and researchers from the fields of evolutionary anthropology, biology, the history of science, performance, comics and visual storytelling as part of her REACH OUT exchange programme.


This time, the starting point was the question of how, from a feminist-inspired perspective, we might collectively challenge the images and narratives surrounding evolutionary becoming and becoming-being – narratives that have haunted the cultural memory not just since Darwin.


Whilst the core of REACH OUT remains informal – bringing together diverse perspectives, methods and experiences through tinkering, testing, observing and discussing within a shared space for thought and experimentation – this playing field opens up to the public on Sunday afternoons.

Instead of a traditional audience discussion, the ideas, materials, images and experiences of REACH OUT converge, overlap, intermingle and intertwine, in order to explore contradictions or perhaps even new connections between artistic and scientific research.
