Ana Vaz & Nuno da Luz
Ana Vaz & Nuno da Luz, Wolves howling / In choir / Evening snow, 2022. Multi-screen audiovisual installation, variable dimensions. Commissioned by Biennale Gherdëina ∞. Hotel Ladinia, Ortisei. Ph. Tiberio Sorvillo
Ana Vaz is an artist and filmmaker working with film as an instrument. Composed as film-poems, her films walk alongside territories and events haunted by the ever-lasting impacts of internal and external forms of colonialism and their imprint on land, human and other than human forms of life. Expansions or consequences of her films, her practice may also embody writing, critical pedagogy, installations, film programmes or ephemeral events.
Nuno da Luz is an artist whose work circumscribes both aural and visual in the form of performances, installations and printed matter. His practice undulates between sonic explorations of place, ecologies of noise-making, attentive listening, and book-making through the publishing collective ATLAS Projectos. Since 2014, he has performed “with Assisted Resonance” whereby each venue’s resonance and ambience is mixed together with live instrumentation, presented in various venues internationally.
Wolves howling / In choir / Evening snow is a multi-screen audiovisual installation in which the artists follow the concrete and imaginary traces of the wolf in South Tyrol. Combining footage from wildlife surveillance cameras, audio recordings from areas traversed by the wolves and extensive discussions with the experts that study and follow them, Ana Vaz and Nuno da Luz attune themselves with these liminal creatures and the ecologic, geopolitical, economic and ideological systems they face between preservation and ecocide.
