“Kangas” ( h: 8 meters, w: 1.4 meters, natural materials, man-made fibers) is a shared collage by Heidi Pietarinen, Noora Sandgren, Melissa Grant, and Anne Yoncha. The work stitches together acts and images from drawings, photographs, and microscopic slides, into a digital jacquard weaving.Our group is interested in the Finnish idea of “kangas” - a word which translates to “fabric” and “forest type”, de-scribing the intricate enmeshment of species, human and non-human, aerial and terrestrial – in our exploration of “the Heavens”. After collecting and identifying our microbial collaborators in Kilpisjärvi, this piece attempts to get to know other-than-human materialities. We wondered: what are the abilities of these microbes? What are the bridges between us? How did a bacterium first isolated in Antarctica make its way to the air above the Arctic circle, did it travel this distance?
This still-on-going process of understanding involves many translations, moving from analog to digital, and back – with openness.
