ash rain
(ES)
ash rain is an iteration throughout the series ‘i build my language with rocks’ with which duo ~pes delves into the multi-layered aesthetical conditions of geological sensing. in dialogue with multimodal ethnographic entries from a field trip across the Aeolian Islands, ash rain echoes windy allegories, geophonic whispers and basaltic dreams through infrasonic resonances of the volcanic archipelago
ash rain is an iteration throughout the series ‘i build my language with rocks’ with which duo ~pes delves into the multi-layered aesthetical conditions of geological sensing. in dialogue with multimodal ethnographic entries from a field trip across the Aeolian Islands, ash rain echoes windy allegories, geophonic whispers and basaltic dreams through infrasonic resonances of the volcanic archipelago
interested in how sensorial experience shapes ethnographical fieldwork, ash rain aims to unearth insights on the seismic~vibrational weave of these landscapes and cultivate relational imaginaries with their beyond-surface components, often overlooked in conventional cartographic media. the installation re-members some of these components and beings, which tremble and resonate through tectonic activity recorded in the Aeolian Islands, transduced into meandering vibrations induced into a fissured grid, reterritorializing them back together in ever-changing archipelagos
