Lava
Kallio Jade
Lava is a love letter to things that cannot be written about: love, exciting piles of twigs, longing, a disappearing landscape, memories you can’t trust. Either writing hurts, or it is impossible to find the words. Lava is a continuation of the working group’s previous work Magma (2020). Both works deal with human relationships and ecology. The wishes for transformation, non-monogamy and boundless love, which were still partially smouldering under the surface, erupt in Lava, a video dealing with the end of a relationship.
