Rumohr core extracted from Irminger Basin, North Atlantic Ocean in June 2021.
KÓR (CORE) is an interdiscplinary and collaborative artistic practice-as-research that intertangles installation, libretto, and participatory sense-making of deep-sea sentience, sentences, sentiment, and sediment.
Hafnarborg Exhibition, 27 August to 30 October 2021
Two walls, intersecting at a 90-degree angle, present a recto-verso spread in a book. These walls-as-pages display an unfolding story of deep-ocean sense-making between community makers. At the point where the walls intersect is a sediment core which houses deep ocean floor and seawater. At the margins of each wall-as-page, a vertical column of five small sediment and water samples are displayed.
