“Through the discovery of a Celtic sacrificial site at Mormont Hill – a limestone and marl quarry located in the Swiss canton of Vaud – the two-channel video installation with surround sound design Archaeology of Sacrifice unveils how the notion of sacrifice has transitioned from ancient sacred rituals to its contemporary meaning within extractive capitalism.
The two-channel video installation Archaeology of Sacrifice was created as part of the scholarship of the ZF Kunststiftung and will be shown for the first time in the ZeppLab of the Zeppelin Museum Friedrichshafen from 18 September to 6 December 2020.
Archaeology of Sacrifice was created in collaboration with film editor Lara Garcia Reyne, artists Valle Medina and Benjamin Reynolds (Pa.LaC.E), writer Carlos Fonseca, sound designer and composer Udit Duseja, and colourist Paul Wills.
