PURPLE — ECOLOGIES OF SALTSCAPES
Annalisa Zegna & Mauro Diciocia
ATOPOS cvc × Office of Hydrocommons is happy to present the trailer of the new video work created by Annalisa Zegna & Mauro Diciocia in the framework of Purple — Ecologies of Saltscapes, a multidisciplinary research project developed during their residency in Greece. If you have not make it to their open day, get a glimpse of their research!
Exploring the hypersaline lagoons of Messolonghi, the project investigates the ecological interconnections between extremophile organisms inhabiting saline environments. Drawing on field research conducted in dialogue with scientists, environmental researchers, and local communities, the artists present an audiovisual installation combining video and field recordings that translate the micro-dynamics and macro-rhythms of the lagoon ecosystem.
Inspired by the Purple Earth Hypothesis and the vibrant pigments of microorganisms thriving under extreme conditions, Purple — Ecologies of Saltscapes reflects on resilience as a collective ecological process, foregrounding interdependence, care and coexistence in times of environmental uncertainty.
The project is supported by Culture Moves Europe, funded by the European Union and implemented by the Goethe-Institut @culturemoveseurope #CultureMovesEurope @annalisazegna_ @occhiosordo
