Natalia Ludmila - Swim, swim, don't sink (Patagonia, Chile)

about

Pingo river reimagined by Natalia Ludmila.

"A recording of the Pingo* river from the Patagonia region sparked this sound piece that builds a narrative to describe a state of emergency. For this piece titled "swim, swim, don't sink", I repurposed the calming and soothing sound of the Pingo river flowing. In the piece, the river is the guiding thread in a deep and, at times, dark sound composition. And through this tension, I'm searching to put forward notions of a near and looming critical point of our climate, perhaps one of no return."

*The Pingo river is located in the Torres del Paine National Park in the southern part of the Patagonia region in Chile. The river is near the extensive Grey Glacier that has lost approximately two kilometres of its extension due to calving. And in 2017, had a massive iceberg parted from the glacier.
