Artwork Installation by Sep Verboom
In 2023 we started our exploration resulting in an live installation for the Z33 exposition Healing Water.
Inspired by the process of limestone deposition we created a six month hydrochemical simulation where slaked lime (Ca(OH)₂) and atmospheric carbons (CO₂) precipitate into a solid carbon locking landscape of limestone.
This living landscape that grew and evolved in time was a place where silence reigned and time seemed to slow down. As the elements in the limestone exhale, CO2 reacts with slaked lime, gradually forming a solid carbonaceous landscape. Regenerative Flows invites us to slow down, to reflect on the world around us. It is a reminder that beauty and complexity can come from the simplest materials and the most basic processes.
During these months we investigated how it is possible to translate this natural process into a multi layered landscape, to which various designers and artists can then respond, creating a symbolic landscape in addition to a physical one.
The installation was a starting point for different artistic perspectives to inspire and co-create, adding new poetic layers to the installation. The ultra high resolution video images of the limestone artwork are abstract varying landscapes views that slowly evolve and pull an audience in a unique and unknown universe. Suntapes added a soothing live music performance to these immersive video .
The auditive universe contains the sounds of the artwork and a relaxing & evolving composition with acoustic instruments, analogue synths and effects.
