This project's subject matter is light, earth, and their temporalities. We investigate time through film, correspondence, poetry, and other time-based elements that converse and suggest alternative affective formations in times of increased oppression and empty solidarities.
Through letters, the film attempts to search for a common language between earthwork and light-work, as well as rooted and fleeting ways of dealing with repression and distance and embodied and mind-based forms of resistance. Although it is unknown if a compromise to these forms of perception is possible, what they do is materialize the support system they had fostered for each other, leaving us with a cacophony of sound, image, sight, and touch, embedded with care, compassion, and deep-rooted love.
