Video and sound-recording of the soil in my father's grave.
To be presented in a sky-like projection on the ceiling.

Coming from an animistic material spirituality, I do not think my father has left the planet after his passing.

His material is ever transforming and flowing through beings through a planetary metabolism.

Rather than the dominant narrative where the hereafter is an immaterial place far away above us, I propose an alternative where we look to our soil (and therefore food) for the continuation of our loved ones.
I recorded a cosmic sound and angel like microbes in my fathers grave and will project them as if they are above us as heaven.
