Haunting and beautifully delivered [...] with extraordinary purpose and aplomb. The deeply moving JUPITER delivers its message in an insightful and powerful evening, and beyond."
- RAY MORGOVAN, OffOffOnline
"Unlike most climate change-related art, JUPITER doesn't fall strictly on the alarmist side of the argument about the state of our planet. Rather, we are left with [...] a renewed optimism."
- JULIA BUNTAINE, SciArt in America
"JUPITER's goal is not to provide an ultimate answer, but to start a dialogue. It succeeds."

Before retreating to the planet Jupiter, a young tycoon overhauls the entire energy system on Earth. His imposed vision promises to halt climate change, but demands costly sacrifices from all citizens of the world. A trio inspired by Frankenstein and energy policy, JUPITER is a 200-year-long dialogue between Jove and the representation of Humanity.
A collaboration with environmental policy experts, economists, psychologists, and innovative designers, JUPITER asks if we should impose radical societal change for the greater good.
