Ecotone / Living Boundaries Between Species, Forms and Worlds

The project “Ecotone” explores transition zones — the spaces where nature, humans, technology, and imagination intersect. Borrowed from ecology, the term ecotone defines the boundaries between ecosystems, where interactions are intense, unpredictable, and vital for life. In an artistic context, these thresholds become metaphors of change, hybridization, and evolution. The exhibition invites artists to investigate how living forms and artificial structures merge, how myths and metamorphoses transform our perception of identity, and how digital environments reshape our connection to the natural world. Areas of exploration include: inter-species relationships, hybrid bodies and forms, symbolic transformations, organic textures and materials, shared “trans-species” corporeality, and digital ecologies through multimedia, video art, and interactive installations. “Ecotone” becomes a space of dialogue between worlds, questioning the fragile boundaries between natural and artificial, real and imagined. It is a platform for artistic expression and reflection on the links that unite us with other life forms and with the environment we inhabit.
