ABOUT
“Event Horizon II” is based on Kamil Hassim's study into Fundamental Physics, this piece weaves a connection between modern African astronomy, ancient Indigenous cosmologies and their notions of instrument making. By using defunct optics from an astronomy lab, a sensory installation in waves of sound and optical light is created in this experimental meditation on the fundamental forces of our universe.
This iteration manifests as an installation in --defunct context‘s “Pavilion Prototype 2 U406” and is curated by Sihle Sogaula. The opening is on June 1st at 6pm and will be accompanied by the sonic improvisations of composer and guitarist Reza Khota.
This work is generating as a result of his residency with @defunctcontext @artsatcern @prohelvetia at @cern @saao_astro and @saraoweb
