“Everything changes and nothing remains the same…” Heraclitus. Nothing is permanent, except change. Change must be viewed as an uninterrupted set of alterations, and not as the substitution of one item for another. Everything is calm. Silence. Just the murmur of the wind over sand. Nothing is like we remembered in this wasteland.
The landscape has changed, we are surrounded by barren wilderness. Far beyond the idea of population, human kind or Nature, there is something in continuous movement that will prevail when we no longer exist, albeit our ability to modify our environment. This gave place to our project Unveil.
We designed a fanzine recollecting all our investigation and research together with photographies from Wassaic, NY that we altered, with quotes extracted from Cormac McCarthy’s book “The Road”, expressing the wilderness and change in the landscape of the world after human encounter. The fanzine was printed in risography at Endless Editions, NYC.
We developed a landscape based on the analysis of the topographic lines from Wassaic, NY and its immediate surroundings. Also, we manipulated sounds recorded in town (such as steps on the snow, the river, rain drops, tractors, etc) through processing software and printed a series of posters with a specific graphic group of elements for each sound. All this took place in an exhibition at The Wassaic Project, NY on June, 2015.
