Intersected Waterbodies is a sound installation presented in PARABOL, a sound shower located in the entrance hall at Kunsthall 3,14.

Ase Brunborg Lie's sound work Intersected Waterbodies dives into the ocean's depths. Thousands of meters below the surface, we encounter the seabed's ecology with admiration and wonder—but also with a drive to exploit and conquer, desires embedded in human nature.

With its poetic soundscape, Intersected Waterbodies explores possible entangled pasts and futures for humans, technology, and more-than-human life on the deep seabed. What life forms might be there in the future? And how can we leave those who remain with as much care as possible? The work takes its starting point in deep-sea mining, where minerals are extracted from precarious and largely unknown ecosystems beneath the seabed. This is paradoxically done to obtain metals deemed essential for the green shift and a sustainable technological future.

Free entrance, welcome!
