When the world slows and the lights dim, the screen keeps breathing. Taking its name from a now-obsolete digital ritual—the screensaver—this project curates a contemplative, meditative, and slow-paced space where artists respond to ecological collapse, climate grief, and the aesthetics of stillness.

Screensavers for a Dying World gathers artists who treat the digital surface not as spectacle, but as sanctuary — spaces of stillness in a culture of endless motion. These works are not meant to distract or entertain. They drift, loop, and hum softly — meditations for overworked machines and tired eyes. Together, they form a quiet resistance: a collection of digital relics that refuse productivity, that linger in beauty and decay.

Where activism often demands urgency, this pavilion offers pause. Where data visualizations chart catastrophe, these works create digital sanctuaries—pixels that loop like lullabies, fragments of post-human nature, generative code that breathes instead of blinks. The screensaver here is metaphor: a placeholder for a future on hold, a form of digital mourning, a small, quiet rebellion against productivity in the face of global breakdown.
