A group of unknown beings have taken settlement. We invite you to witness their ceremony, among a collection of artefacts, syllables, materials, movements, mirrorings and inscriptions.
I Sat Above And Below The Ground is a performative installation
the result of a collaboration I took on with visual artist Lily Dollner. Through setting up several algorithms, rulesets, and expeditions, we generated a collection of objects and according rituals. By complying with alternative intelligences, things inexplicably got concrete - objects lost and gained purpose and meaning, and were integrated in the past and future. In this, we were moved by the instructions and boundaries that were set.
