The topic of where the world is going comes up in our discussions quite often lately. The pace at which the global warming is developing is extremely frightening. At some point realizing that makes you wonder how will this all come to an end? The environmental crisis contributes towards the vision of a dystopian ending. It is hard to wrap our head around, since we live in a very comfortable society, we take our environment for granted. The immersive art piece “Hello, world. Bye, world.” transports the viewers into the dim vision of the future.
