Veins of salt (rumble and roll)

Veins of salt (rumble and roll)

Animation speculation on a lithic response to an unaceptable human change to their environment- of rocks rocks coming together and rising up in a response.

New video work emerging from reseach as an offshoot  from WITH SALT AND ROCKS IN OUR VEINS; a new media work that considers the complexities of contested groundwater in the Atacama desert, as it is extracted for lithium salts to enable the green energy transition. That new media work was exhibited at IMAL Brussels, 2024, for the EUJRC project, Naturarchy:Towards a Natural Contract. 

Of collapsing the distance between Global North centers of power, of energy policies and economic drivers, and over-the-horizon peripheries such as the Atacama.
