Drawing inspiration from the iconography of mining wells with their intricate yet impressive structures, Bruno Ribeiro reinterprets the notion of digging the ground in search of something. Light is here the element that is sought after and emerges from the earth. At the crossroads of realism and imagination, with a fantastical approach that borders on cinematic experience, Ribeiro draws in viewers from afar. The impressive installation is accompanied by a meticulously designed audio-visual loop that marries light, ambient electronic soundtrack, and immersive soundscape.
