shadow metallurgies
ongoing artistic research and film project
This project has instigated field trips, workshops and filmmaking at sites of aluminium infrastructure, including smelters in Germany and Canada. The project uses participation and visual media to produce corporate accountability, sense iron oxide toxicity and counter the colonial lineage of British bauxite mining. With GoPros, sound and thermal imaging on the ground, the work aims to counter the visual domination of mapping and carceral architecture of smelter locations and their waste sites.
