The Azerbaijan National Carpet Museum opened the exhibition 'NI – Natural Intelligence,' featuring installations, digital art, nano video art, and performances by artists Ramil Aliev, Emin Mathers, Nargiz Ramizgizi, Ramil Mammadli, and Lenay Seidali-zade. The works explore the intersection of art, science, and technology, focusing on how digitalization and environmental change affect human cognition, memory, and cultural identity. The Azerbaijani carpet is reinterpreted as a carrier of memory and cultural codes within this contemporary context.
The exhibition matters because it positions traditional Azerbaijani craft within global conversations about technology, ecology, and human perception, bridging heritage and innovation. Supported by the Azerbaijan Culture Ministry and developed through the Atesh Hub platform, it highlights the growing role of science art in the region and underscores the cultural significance of the carpet as a living symbol. The show runs until June 14, offering a timely reflection on humanity's relationship with nature and digital reality.
