Symbiotic Glitches: Ecofuture Interventions in Concrete, Steel, and Soil (AC+ Collective Exhibition)

"Symbiotic Glitches " is a multi-site exhibition that transforms spatial and systemic friction into a space for radical care, ecological foresight, and hidden resistance. Spanning three distinct architectural layers of Berlin—a wild garden, a transitional rooftop, and a brutalist concrete-and-steel gallery—the participating FLINTA* artists, designers, and creatives present artworks that function as productive errors within the systemic, technocratic machine.

The title is inspired by Legacy Russell’s*Glitch Feminism* (2020), which explores the reinterpretation of cyberfeminist issues, a new generation shaped by internet experience, and a queer net art scene. Glitches are not mistakes, but an opportunity to transcend categories and liberate the body. Not a system failure, but a necessary system correction. In an era dominated by corporate, extractive AI and accelerating environmental collapse, this exhibition positions the “glitch” as a necessary biological and digital disruption rather than a failure. It is a portal toward an alternative ecofuture.
