From the origins of the universe in the entrails of the Large Hadron Collider where the Big Bang is being studied at the CERN to the birth of the internet at that very same place, the story of human progress is intricately woven.

Whether marveling at the grandeur of ancient wonders or contemplating the darker instincts that have shaped our past, the first part of this diptych serves as an invitation to explore the rich tapestry of human civilization, from the dawn of time to the present day, in order to gain a deeper understanding of our shared heritage and the forces that have propelled us forward, both as individuals and as a global community.
