'The Things We Leave Behind' by Susana Sanromán (Creative Hub: Level 3, Room E)
Multimedia Installation and Performance
'The Things We Leave Behind' performance at Hospital Club London, part of Spain Now festival and ARTCOP21
The artist presents an Installation made from 100% recycled bottles from Singapore; a space for reflection on the human footprint on our environment. Fair attendees will be able to create new pieces together with the artist during a series of activities focused on the public.
In addition, Sanromán will present her Live Sculpture/Performance The Things We Leave Behind, an environmental performance focusing on the impact of consumerist societies on the natural environment.
During the performance, the artist will mummify a model with nets and other residues from the fishing industry, all of them obtained from a beach clean-up. The mummy represents the idea of the human figure, and metaphorically the global society in which we live. In this visual game, Sanromán wants to show that everything we throw away will end up surrounding us.
