Microbe

Microbe (2020)
Bacterial imagery sonification, found objects, debris, video projection, voice

This work was made over a week-long residency at Heilstätte Grabowsee near Berlin – in a disused tuberculosis sanatorium. Occupying this space during the outbreak of a respiratory disease like COVID 19 evoked the returned presence of the building’s former use. The peeling surfaces of paint and plaster allowed me to peer back through these ages – into micro-landscapes with colours and textures like bacteria under the microscope.
