About
A new – but still unseen – planet ten times the size of Earth lurks on the fringes of our solar system. Many of us grew up with the knowledge of nine planets; and while Pluto was subsequently stripped of its planetary status, this spectral entity awaits to supersede it. We have imagined countless times, but still don’t know, what life on another planet might be like. wo-no-qo-so is an otherworldly minimal abode, a room filled with an atmosphere to which we must acclimatise, occupied by a collection of seeming tools or appliances.
wo-no-qo-so is a space of speculation, exploration and mundane fantasy. We can imagine other spaces, alien lives, as correlates or balms to the upheavals here on Earth; but what if it is simply the same as our terrestrial existence?
