Headed to Barcelona!

Exiting times for our project–Linda and Carmine fly out this weekend to install our sculpture ‘Last Breaths’ for ISEA 2022 in Barcelona. The ISEA exhibition runs 9-30 June in multiple venues.

We’re privileged to be selected by the jury for installation at the historic Sant Pau hospital in central Barcelona. ISEA (International Symposium on Electronic Arts) is a prestigious annual symposium and exhibition, dedicated to the intersection between art, science, technology, design and engineering.

Linda: “Through this project, human cardiac failure, expelled as breath and recorded as sound, is transfigured to 3D form as terra-firma for growth of human yet inhuman life. The work traverses terrains of life and death, bodies and technologies, human and inhuman, the strained edges of wounded hearts and the stretching extremities of bio-technical possibility.”

We’ll report from Barcelona over the next two weeks.
