| === '''Concept:''' ===
| |
| I remember leaning my head into my neck,
| |
| | |
| I remember looking into the sky,
| |
| | |
| Ash falls like Snow,
| |
| | |
| Slowly,
| |
| | |
| Weightless,
| |
| | |
| | |
| As a child, I used to stick out my tongue to taste the first snow sometime around December,
| |
| | |
| Snow has become rare and the ash - now - tastes bitter,
| |
| | |
| | |
| I remember loading frightened animals in and onto dirty trucks,
| |
| | |
| I remember driving down into a valley,
| |
| | |
| Ash falls like Snow from the sky and the wall of fire is slowly eating its way down the mountain in front of me,
| |
| | |
| Everything is in slow motion,
| |
| | |
| The world is almost weightless - almost unreal,
| |
| | |
|
| |
|
| A child is sitting next to me at the beach and we look at burned wood being washed onto the shore,
| | The style of this first attempt does not reflect the approach of the final product! |
|
| |
|
| “Everything will burn” the child says,
| |
|
| |
|
| Eleven years old,
| |
|
| |
|
| Her name is ''Zoi'',
| |
|
| |
|
| ''Zoi'' in greek means life,

|
| |
|
|
| |
|
| Everything feels slow,
| |
|
| |
|
| Almost weightless,
| | [[File:Screenshot 2024-05-23 at 01.07.27.png|thumb|1088x1088px]] |
|
| |
|
| Almost like a dream,
| | [[File:Screenshot 2024-06-10 at 14.10.27.png|thumb|1088x1088px]] |
| | [[File:Screenshot 2024-06-10 at 14.10.44.png|thumb|1088x1088px]] |
|
| |
|
| Virtually unreal,

|
| |
|
| Only the catastrophe alert on my phone reminds me everyday that I’m not dreaming,
| |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
| 125.000 hectare forest burned that summer on ''Evia'' Island Greece,
| |
|
| |
|
| But the scenes strangely fixed in my memory are:
| | VISUAL MOCKUP |
| | Fabric - stained with ash and coal, photo(transfer-print)grid |
| | 4:3 |
| | hanging from ceiling |
| | functioning as "projection canvas" for imagination triggered by sound installation |
|
| |
|
| The beauty of the Ash falling like Snow,
| |
|
| |
|
| The constant red sun, the all-day sunset,
| |
|
| |
|
| Clouds that were not white but black,
| |
|
| |
|
| The nights sky that was not black, but red,
| |
|
| |
|
| The Russian airplanes extinguishing the fires because of the remains of an orthodox saint in the church close by,
| |
|
| |
|
| And again and again: The ash like snow - White Christmas in 38 degree burning heat.
| |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
| Now I ask myself:
| |
|
| |
|
| What are the aesthetics of catastrophes?
| |
|
| |
|
| How do aesthetics relate to the un-normal?
| |
|
| |
|
| Will the apocalypse be beautiful?
| |
|
| |
|
| How much pain must be held in aesthetic experiences?
| |
|
| |
|
| Can everything be aesthetic when seen from a new perspective?
| | PRESENTAION SCRIPTS (Dérive - Guy Debord + Rhythmanalysis - Lefebvre) |

| |
|
| And why do astronauts always describe the beauty of the earth once they look back at it?
