Jitish Kallat’s Covering Letter animates decoded sounds and images from NASA’s Voyager Golden Records. Referencing Earth’s interstellar message from 1977, the work is an immersive meditation on humanity’s shared future and place in the universe. Kallat’s works have been exhibited globally and traverse the intersections of science and historical memory. (India)
