Flux Laboratory Athens invited the transdisciplinary artist Athena Wasborn to deepen and express their artistic practice in Greece for a period of six months.
Technology of the Earth is an expression of the research of Athena Wasborn and Olia Dramitinou in collaboration with Despoina Sanida Crezia - into hyper-translation of histories of place and dis-placement to the point of losing the objects of translation. Left with just the relation of human and elemental bodies, they experiment around the edge of nature and anti-nature, creating an analog AI poetry generator, reading cosmological systems on rocks mapped with burger king wrappers and holy cows, slipping our bodies into mathematical diagrams, playing with the physical etymology of technology. What comes after duality? How can we embody this breaking point as the natural unnatural creatures we are, always in between?
Technology of the Earth is co-created by Athena Wasborn and Olia Dramitinou, in collaboration with Despoina Sanida Crezia and Panagiotis Tomaras. The piece is part of a 4 year portal around duality’s transformation opened by Athena Wasborn in 2020. The piece is in part the expression of their residency at Flux Laboratory Athens. Featuring Erifili Mikropoulou.
