To look at soil and see more than dirt  

             




The silent film, played as a loop, depicts a series of post-industrial sites as the mise-en-scene for a semi-fictional group. In amongst the residue of industry, the group meet to address a friction in the collective.

Through mobilising the geographically disparate collections of the Fritz-Hüser-Institut in Dortmund, the Ruhr Museum in Essen and the Glasgow Women’s Library, two post-industrial landscapes are thrust into dialogue.
