Sofía Córdova
-
Sofía Córdova’s films make many noises. Whether subtle, soothing, or disturbing, her practice contains questions about feminism, the Earth, power, liberation, migration, extinction, and extractive capitalism. Through time-warped fabulations, the artist speeds time up or slows it down, transmitting visions from the future to make sense of how power operates in the present. In other words, she explores the possibility of many futures through a plurality of audio-visual experiences condensed into a single digital experience. Córdova’s speculations combine crunchy electronic soundtracks with images of green forest beings or an ethereal, organic score that contextualises horrific personal narratives. This aesthetic experience troubles the notion that normalcy is guaranteed in the future—or at least what we humans on Earth know as normalcy—asserting that comfort on our planet is not guaranteed despite our best (and worst) efforts to alter our surroundings.
