The  overview effect is the profound cognitive shift astronauts experience when  they see Earth from space. The experience is known to heighten one’s  appreciation of Earth’s remarkable fragility, providing a deeper sense of  clarity about the human experience and the ability to see what truly matters.  Featuring four collages inspired by this phenomenon, this exhibition reflects  the tension between the familiar and the incomprehensible, and the connection  between humankind and the universe. Using photographs of Earth taken by  astronauts on the International Space Station during the Rakia mission, these  artworks encourage reflection on our place in the universe and our shared  responsibility to protect it. As part of its vision, Rakia strives to  integrate diverse approaches and perspectives — including artistic ones —  into the space sector by providing opportunities and expanding access to  space. In line with this vision, the poems featured in this exhibition were  written by high school students for a poetry contest in collaboration with  poetry magazine Hava LeHaba. A reading of the winning poems was then streamed  from the International Space Station during the Rakia mission. Now these  poems are given new life, new interpretations and a new context within the  collages. Just as the overview effect fundamentally transforms astronauts’  worldviews and perspectives, the process of creating the collages involved  transforming separate elements into a single cohesive artwork. In both cases,  the shift involves taking in individual fragments and reaching a broader  understanding that changes and renews the original components, highlighting  the connection between the familiar and the new. The local artists selected  to take part in this exhibition have different styles and come from different  backgrounds. Together, they created a diverse collage that sparks viewers’  curiosity about the exhibition’s theme.Studio Gelada is an  illustration, design, and production studio, a multidisciplinary art center,  and a contemporary platform for illustrators, designers, artists and  collectors.
