Liquid ground, 2021

PRESS RELEASE: ENG | CAST | CAT

Although the oceans make up more than 70% of the Earth, until now only a very small part of the seabed has been mapped. However, in recent years, the mapping of these spaces has accelerated due to different economic, geopolitical and scientific interests, determined to build a “new continent” to be explored and exploited under the sea. “Liquid ground” is a video essay that takes as its thematic axis the ocean floor and its current cartography to talk about colonialism, ecology and representation.

Shaped by a wide variety of found material—from the illustrations of the first worldwide oceanographic expedition, to current technologies and visions related to the oceans floors—”Liquid ground” functions as a reminder of the liquid grounds that, in reality, sustain and compose us. Moreover, it is a call to disobeying the stability of the arbitrary, extractive and limiting lines that are drawn over space. Like any other form of knowledge, “Liquid ground” is also a series of riddles.
