Like earth in heaven (2022)
video installation
in collaboration with Martina Quesada​​​​​​​
Like earth in heaven explores the physical friction between the human body and the space it occupies. When a body forces its way into an environment, a new entity emerges, shifting the boundaries of both. This phenomenon—invisible to the naked eye but present as an electromagnetic current—acts as an aura that alters the space.
The digital landscape is a precise segment of the Southern Patagonian Icefield, a massive ice surface shaped by relentless Andean winds on the border between Argentina and Chile. Built as a digital model and developed through 3D animation, the piece constructs a simulated reality where the character’s body dialogues with the rugged topography and the shifting hues of its own energy field.
The video installation is part of the exhibition presented by Constantin Nakov in Paris.
