It will certainly take a while, but it’s going to happen one day: the colonisation of the Moon and Mars. Space agencies, scientists, international companies and architects are already planning a new society beyond the Earth. These developments put the notion of ‘public space’ and its limits into a new and challenging context. The (im)possibilities seem endless.
This search for new worlds to discover and develop is behind King on the Moon, a research project by second-year students at the Willem de Kooning Academy. The students examined the issues behind the dream, generating solutions for exploring and taking possession of new public and private spaces.
In this pop-in expo students show a variety of research, ideas and observations.
