An expanded cinema performance unfolding as a realm of light and shadow: flickering images merging and dissolving into one another, the rattling sound of a projector gently blending with field recordings and live acoustic textures – a stone rubbing against another, a whisper of friction. <em class="film">Metanoia</em> represents a shift in perception. Rather than observing from a distance, we begin to perceive through the rhythms and transformations that shape our surroundings. Shapeshifting images emerge as macro footage of plant textures fused with collages made of plant material, forming a dreamlike landscape. Within this undetermined terrain, curious figures, ephemeral beings appear and vanish, subtle suggestions that there is more, something undiscovered, untamed and continuously becoming. These ephemeral beings surface through Bigum + Björge’s dialogue with materials found in nature. They flicker into being and dissolve again, yet their trace endures – a quiet recognition that we are not observers of nature, but extensions of it, a pulse within the same living fabric.
