In the depths of our forest, a figure makes itself present, holding a cluster of red balloons. They glow ethereal, like a lantern guiding the way or a firefly lost between the trees. By multiplying the red light, it loses its guiding purpose, and fully becomes a dialogue between the lived experience and the manipulated. Even though the multiplication is evidently done digitally, it doesn’t yet explain why it’s able to affect the real trees by illuminating them, until the scene unfolds: the forest is duplicated. A geometric shape punctures the video as the soundscape envelopes the spectator. Even as this artificiality is exposed, the piece goes back to the initial gesture—floating, multiplying, and filling the space with their presence. For a familiar and otherworldly experience with the piece, we encourage you to listen to this piece with headphones and eyes closed.
