Melding art and science, Cosmos Archaeology reveals the depths of the Universe through physical, perceptual and sensory interaction. Harnessing technologies of immersive and interactive visualization and the visual arts, the exhibition transformed the most complex astrophysical data into sounds and images that everyone can experience and understand. The artworks featured in "Cosmos Archaeology" primarily result from the close collaboration between the humanities and astronomy. It embodies a profound fusion of artistic expression and scientific inquiry, nurturing an international discourse from a celestial vantage point. The exhibition is co-curated by Sarah Kenderdine from EPFL’s Laboratory for Experimental Museology (eM+) and EPFL Pavilions, Jean-Paul Kneib from EPFL’s Laboratory of Astrophysics (LASTRO), and independent Chinese curator Iris Long. It highlights collaborations between artists and prominent astronomical projects, including the MUST Telescope from Tsinghua University and the Chinese SKA Science Projects led by the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory.
