FIELD FLUX – Sonic Leaks

Sonic Leaks listens to the shape of water and the power that gives it form: the water moving through a system, and the politics of the container that decides where it can go. Wherever water is enclosed – the pipeline, the dam, the metered tap, the gated reservoir – the same conversion repeats: a public substance becomes a saleable container, abundance for those who can pay and stagnation for everyone else. Accelerated, that logic makes water infrastructure a military target, like with the Kakhovka dam in Ukraine, strikes on Gulf desalination plants in the current US–Israel attack on Iran, and Gaza, where data indicate nearly 90% of water and sanitation infrastructure has been destroyed or damaged in the ongoing genocide.

The project partly made during an residence period at @institutocervantesutrecht

FIELD FLUX will be presenting their work in the garden of @whereiscasco

Until Sunday 13 September you are welcome to experience different installations at 3 locations:
@UMU.museum
@bibliotheekutrecht
@institutocervantesutrecht
@whereiscasco

Resisting Waters is project in collaboration with @Residentiesinutrecht

How do we listen to the systems that decide who gets to drink? Each container’s resonance, absorption, and diffusion carries the relations of power that placed it there, treating acoustic impedance as a political parameter. A leak is the first failure you can hear: the moment an enclosure stops holding, where pressure finds the crack and the sealed system gives itself away. To hear a leak is to hear power overreach its own containment. A leak is also an opening: a place where a closed system can be entered, and redirected.

Many thanks to all those who shared their voices with us, entrusting us with fragments of their stories, memories, knowledge, and ways of relating to water. by @fieldflux

Hey, we are FIELD FLUX!
A collective of three.
With lots of questions. Usually somewhere outside.

We came together through a shared curiosity for listening, ecology, and the stories held within landscapes.
Working across artistic research, sound, curatorial practice, and participatory performance, we explore the archaeology of the present, asking what the ground beneath our feet can tell us about the futures already taking shape.

We believe that listening is a political act.
That resilience is transscalar.
That slowing down is a form of resistance.

Welcome to the field. 🌾 by @fieldflux
