Songs from the Compost | Emory | Michael C. Carlos Museum

Shot in the pine forests and sand dunes of the Curonian Spit, Lithuanian artist Eglė Budvytytė’s video installation, Songs from the Compost, is a hypnotic exploration of nonhuman forms of consciousness and different dimensions of symbiotic life: interdependence, surrender, death, and decay. The images gradually layer, alongside intimate lyrics of a song that channels the desires of an entity shapeshifting across different genders, voices, and beyond-human embodiments.
