Nasim Hantezadeh will be included in Extinction: Renewal, Art of a Living Planet at The Eden Project, Cornwall. The exhibition opens on 18 September 2026 and runs through till 25 July 2027.
Created by the conservation charity Explorers Against Extinction, in collaboration with more than 35 global artists, Extinction: Renewal, Art of a Living Planet explores humanity's relationship with a changing world, from prehistoric time, through the present and into the future.
Misha Curson, senior curator at the Eden Project, said: “This exhibition brings together artists whose work reminds us that creativity is one of the most powerful tools for imagining a different future. At a moment when the scale of the planetary emergency can feel overwhelming, this exhibition asks visitors to look closely, reflect and find hope in renewal - because how we imagine the future shapes how we choose to build it. I'm hugely grateful to our partners for their generosity and vision in bringing this extraordinary collection together.
"As the Eden Project celebrates its 25th anniversary, this exhibition reflects the values that have guided Eden from the beginning: reconnecting people with nature and inspiring positive action for the planet."
