Objects as Temporal Entities comprises a series of documents, guides, art objects,
and a solar-powered archive designed to investigate, trouble, and provide guidance on the storage and breakdown
of materials in collection. Developed by the Centre for Sustainable Curating with members of the Synthetic Collective
at LUMA Arles as a part of the Sustainable Institution (TSI) residency, Objects as Temporary Entities is intended
to help artists and collectors factor in the long and short lives and afterlives of artworks and objects through the lens
of health and climate impacts.
