Memory Matter
Memory Matter is a project realized by Fara Peluso as result of an ongoing research on algae organisms and the Algal Bloom phenomenon. The intent is to recount the reasons linked with an event of climate changes, the factors who determine it, representing the changes of a natural landscape and its connections with human beings daily activities. The installation simulates a scenario where an aquatic ecosystem and its pollution are main protagonists, hoping to contribute for a public awareness and the building of a historical memory, it also shows an almost imperceptible matter and its traces.
A project co-produced by Abattoirs de Bomel, Goethe Institut and KIKK.
