Wasteland is curated by Lendager Group and developed in collaboration with Danish Architecture Center. The exhibiton is funded by Realdania, Dreyers Fond og Statens Kunstfond.
The built environment has left an enormous ecological footprint responsible for 40% of global carbon emissions alone, while natural resources are becoming increasingly scarce. It doesn’t have to be that way. In fact, together we can reach for the stars and recycle our resources to the highest value possible, making sure that our buildings become part of the solution to our global challenges – not the problem as they are today.
