Slow deterioration and loss of landscapes
CONTAMINATION SITE is a durational installation and performance about the increasing contamination of our waters. Three water containers are displayed, along with a sound composition. The exhibited water is clear at first, but is contaminated with each performance.
In its stillness and slow deterioration, CONTAMINATION SITE resembles the lifeless nature of dead lakes – an increasing issue in Danish landscapes.
The performance consists of four acts:
During the first three performances, the water is contaminated.
The last performance is a farewell ceremony (‘Afsked’), where the water enters its final state: Marked as a CONTAMINATION SITE.
Exhibited at Specialefestivalen 2024 (Copenhagen).
