THE BURIAL THEME / ISM

Immersive audio visual installation
2018

The Burial Theme is a six screen immersive audio visual work created with Constanza Bizraelli (CAO) for the ISM Hexadome at Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin.

Inspired by ancient Moche iconography and cosmology, the piece explores the shifting boundaries between life and death, creation and dissolution. Two intersecting visual planes continually fold and reconfigure themselves inside the dome, forming a slow moving rit ual of dust, structure and light.

Developed for the ISM Hexadome, an immersive audiovisual architecture built in collaboration with Pfadfinderei and ZKM, the work later travelled internationally to Gray Area (San Francisco), MASS MoCA (Massachusetts) and Mutek MAC (Montreal).
