SESI Lab is an unprecedented space that connects art, science and technology, open to all audiences, inaugurated in 2022 in Brasilia. There, the public can interact with equipment that explains, in practice, different scientific concepts, natural and social phenomena, with the proposal that visitors investigate the phenomena and reflect on new possibilities for the future.
Expomus acted in the full museological advisory of the SESI Lab project, from its conceptualization and conception to its total implementation, working in partnership with the Exploratorium, a museum in San Francisco, in the United States. Expomus was also responsible for the conception and production of the temporary exhibition The Future of Professions, the first original exhibition held by SESI Lab and opened together with the inauguration of the space.
SESI Lab was installed in the heart of the federal capital, an iconic building originally designed by Oscar Niemeyer, with almost 7,500 square meters. The architectural requalification was carried out by Gustavo Penna Architects & Associates.
The multidisciplinary program proposed for the space is guided by a creative and innovative educational approach, including temporary and permanent exhibitions, festivals, seminars, workshops, artistic residencies, cinema, as well as activities oriented to maker culture.
In SESI Lab’s DNA are the social and educational technologies developed decades ago by the Social Service of Industry (SESI) and the National Service for Industrial Learning (SENAI) in order to connect the space to the new demands and rapid changes of the world to propose actions, collect ideas and value diversity.
