DESECRATION EARTH
A New Media installation by Faith XLVII and edited by Inka Kendzia.
Desecration Earth focuses on the Beirut Explosion as a prompt to examine the flaws in our current
global economic systems and their neglect of environmental protections.
Accessing the role of social media, the installation consists of multiple videos
providing direct recordings of the blast throughout the city, playing on loop and synced to the moment of the explosion.
The installation urges the understanding of the intimate and individual traumas
that echo from larger lack of responsible decision making from the governing powers.
Sanskrit chant by Vishanthi Kali.
