On Hannah Arendt: the conquest of space
15 February - 26 march 2022
-
To accompany Richard Saltoun Gallery's 'On Hannah Arendt: Eight Proposals for Exhibition', Laima draws on her multifaceted identity as a producer, musician, activist, artist, mother and teacher to create eight unique sound pieces in response to each exhibition in the programme and each chapter in Arendt's book. Titled collectively as Infinite past, infinite future and NOW, the works together engage with themes of time, culture, truth and spirituality.

Hello, hello, are you there?
Can you hear me?I've lost connection.Amelia, please turn off the lights.This is the mind, the mind that will decide.This is the mind, the artificial mind that will decide.I've lost connection.The sun moves every day, but really, we rotate, the sun stays.This is the mind, the artificial mind that will decide.Amelia, can you turn off the lights.And maybe we will merge, in themeta...meta...meta..metaphysical realm. -
For this piece, I've let the machine flow. What if the machines could decide? I insist for Amelia (AI) take me back to darkness, where we humans could merge in a metaphysical realm.

Rooted in the São Paulo contemporary art scene, Laima's credentials in the world of music are firmly established as one half of Mixhell alongside her husband Igor Cavalera and for her work with Soulwax. Her last work ‘Home’ is a conceptual double album released by DEEWEE in collaboration with The Vinyl Factory that revolves around the themes of routine, power, life and death. She has performed her music in people’s own homes, creating intimate spaces for audiences to reflect upon themselves, including a performance at Richard Saltoun Gallery in early 2020. In 2021, Laima will explore opportunities where the audience can experience sound as a reflective and healing tool.
