Egor Kraft presented URL Stone in Corridor I: Onkalo, curated by Marie Graftieaux, Nora Mayr, Gilles Neiens, and Lauren Reid for insitu. The exhibition explored long-term communication across millennia, inspired by Finland’s Onkalo nuclear waste repository, and questioned preservation, memory, and the ethics of transmitting knowledge to the distant future. Kraft’s installation examined how digital and algorithmic media might serve as tools for enduring communication, reflecting on the fragility of meaning, the persistence of information, and technology’s role in shaping human understanding of present and future risks.
