Sound installation and
d
urational performance (3 hours) by
Sara Rodrigues and
Rodrigo B. Camacho


​Durational performance:
Two figures collect samples of the various living species that they find; equipped with protective suits, gloves, gas masks, dissection kits, pipettes and coverslips. The residue of the performance consists of a collection of 162 coverslips, preserving the living remains of a world in sudden change.  

Sound installation:
Missa pro Defunctis 
(1621), by Duarte Lobo, has been slowed down five times
. The original text of the mass has been substituted by the scientific latin names of the species who's origin took place somewhere between the 50 million years that separate the Paleocene from the Pleistocene period. The female voices (Sara) sing the appearance of 200 new species, while the male voices (Rodrigo) sing the extinction of the same 200 species during the Holocene (specially during the most recent 10 thousand years [0.01 million years of the history of planet earth])
