A work of video art about five generations of children named Camille born between 2025 and 2425.
What happens when the human race, after irrevocably altering the planet’s environmental equilibria, ceases to be the centre of the world? This is the premise set by Donna Haraway, famous American philosopher and radical feminist, author of Staying with the Trouble: Making Kin in the Chthulucene. In chapter five of the Camille Stories Children of Compost Haraway imagines the lives of five symbiotic children named Camille born between 2025 and 2045, who in order to survive have had to adapt themselves.
