SONIA LEBER & DAVID CHESWORTH – GEOGRAPHY BECOMES TERRITORY BECOMES

4-screen Compile Compound 3 min

8-channel HD video installation, sync or non-sync playback, variable, stereo audio, 14 minutes, 2018

Geography Becomes Territory Becomes explores how the architecture of early fortresses radically transformed the natural world, through the territorialization of land. In the multichannel installation, the artists mobilize the immovable in a sensual choreography of forms that quiver, twist and flip, unleashing invisible forces and sensations.
