Beyond Human is an exhibition by MA Industrial Design students from Central Saint Martins, led by Art and Design studio Burton Nitta.

Works create cultural evolutions when imagining beyond the human world to meet the planetary crisis. The thought-provoking exhibition responds to the library, the former site of Sir Isaac Newton’s home, a visionary who gave new ways to see the world. The wide-ranging works include performance, sound, film, and design artefacts, some using bio-material grown in collaboration with bioengineering scientists from Imperial College London. Don’t miss the chance to explore the world beyond humans.

Join us for inspiration and cultural evolutions that challenge current perspectives.
