During the finissage of Charging Myths on Sunday 4 June 2023, we look at deepseamining through storytelling at Framer Framed during Amsterdam Art Week 2023. Within the context of the exhibition, following the trail of lithium, four artists use different methods to forge a deeper connection to natural materials, whose stories and traces are often unknown.
A Seat for the Sea
Deep sea mining (DSM) is rapidly coming to be, after a false dawn in the 1970s, a devastating reality. From four to five kilometres below sea level to the depths of the seabed, the process is hidden from our view. How can our imaginary make visible what is beyond human perspective? At Framer Framed, Greet Brauwers & Raf Custers address two angles that factor into the mainstream narrative of DSM. The programme's performances, talks and stories -including The Ocean's Trompe l'Oeil- are compiled in a zine produced in collaboration with the artists, On-Trade-Off and Framer Framed.
