Grounding: Public Access

Damien Roach’s ‘Grounding’ is an immersive audiovisual installation which explores the transient, fleeting and ever-changing nature of land, matter, and the environment via the equally unstable ecology of the networked digital image. In its embrace of the constant motion and change observed across both the vastness of deep time and the microscopic scales of emergent quantum phenomena, Grounding’s never-repeating constellation of image and sound actively encourages an engagement with non-linear, multiperspectival, non-anthropocentric ways of seeing. Borrowing the algorithmic eye of generative media, Grounding points toward an existentially vital emancipation from human-scaled forms of relation with time, matter, the Earth, and other lifeforms in the era of climate crisis and widespread sociopolitical uncertainty.

‘Grounding’ will be hosted in The Truman Brewery, the main conference site for SXSW London, and is curated by Beth Greenacre.
