Events and Initiatives
Lungs of the Earth
Lungs of the Earth is a spatialised sound installation inspired by field recordings from the Amazon rainforest, recorded by sound artist Felix Blume and mixed by composer Bernardo Alvarado Rojas. Four elemental poems by Brazilian writers—”Water” by Patrizia Longhitano, “Fire” by Virna Teixeira, “Air” by Alyssa Martens, and “Earth” by Monika Radojevic—take audiences on a narrative journey, highlighting the call and response between animal and human voices.
The installation serves as a monument to the songs being lost to deforestation and climate change, and encourages audiences to develop a personal relationship with the story of ‘the last forest’ through a multi-sensory and interactive exhibition environment.
