Description
By:
An invitation into an immersive, oceanic way of seeing—where the boundaries between body, technology, and environment dissolve.
Waters Call Me Home brings together the artistic worlds of Emilija Škarnulytė, whose films and installations incorporate elements of documentary and speculative fiction to explore deep time, ecology, and the politics of perception. Traversing decommissioned military sites, submerged architectures, and cosmic infrastructures, Škarnulytė maps the shifting relations between the visible and the invisible, the human and the non-human.
Structured as a visual and sensory journey, the book unfolds in a rhythm of imagery that includes video stills, installations, and sculptural works drawn from fifteen years of practice. A new series of ink drawings inspired by Japanese sumi-e painting and created using a mix of local salt minerals and plankton water is presented here for the first time alongside short texts from her ongoing Journal of Dreams, a continuous record of nocturnal visions that she has been composing since 2012.
Texts by Katia Huemer, Chus Martínez, Filipa Ramos, Kate Sutton, Alexandra Trost and Jayne Wilkinson situate Škarnulytė’s practice within a wider discourse on art, ecology, and posthuman mythologies, while the artist’s own reflections navigate between science and intuition, the geologic and the imaginary.
