At the heart of and we thought we’d last forever lies the navigation of temporal disjunctions — ruins of civilizations yet to come, fragments of human memory drifting through cosmic landscapes, echoes of technologies no longer in use. The exhibition is less a static display and more a narrative space, where objects and images resonate with one another to evoke the uncertainty of survival and the persistence of imagination.

Curated by Mirela Stoeac Vlăduți, the exhibition traces the boundaries between the human and the post-human, permanence and disappearance, utopia and consequence. It stages a world in which the idea of “forever” dissolves into speculation, inviting us to reflect on what remains when the horizon of time collapses.

Both intimate and expansive, and we thought we’d last forever invites visitors to embark on an odyssey that is at once reflection and premonition — a meditation on endings, transformations, and the fragile architectures of hope.

On the occasion of NAG #19, visitors will be able to take part in events such as guided tours with the curator and exhibition mediators, or bioart workshops.
