The horizon—unreachable, unattainable. A space that evades ownership because it is not a physical location, but rather the apparent line where the Earth’s curvature meets the sky, created by the planet’s spherical shape. Speculative Horizons offers a duality to current and potential conditions, questioning our limits of mental perception, experience, or interest, asking what aims do we have for the horizons of the future, and if this speculative existence could be within our grasp, how might we alter our perceptions of the world as it is today?
