Swamp_Matter
Swamp_Matter consists of Eva Garibaldi and Ana Laura Richter. They are interested in ecological topics and the impact of the Anthropocene on ecosystems. Their practice examines the relationship between humans and nature in the context of geological time through marginal and capitalistically unproductive landscapes like swamps and caves. They create spatial installations interwoven with digital media, interlaced with speculative fiction. Their practice is heavily informed by research and fieldwork, as they seek to uncover unique stories and vernacular knowledge of local communities and ecosystems. Swamp_Matter seeks to challenge the perception of unstable landscapes as stagnant and lifeless places, and instead, highlight the rich biodiversity and ecological significance of these often-overlooked environments. Their work has been supported by Creative Industries Fund NL, Aksioma U30+, Škocjan Caves Public Service Agency and Kino Šiška.
