ammophila vol.2 ___Under The Burning Sun

Check the catalogue here

For its second volume ammophila attempts to initiate a discourse around alternative narrations of a sunny framework. “Under the burning sun” aims to create stories of relaxing moments where the sun can warm, comfort but also burn and destroy at the same time. All look well under the light or maybe not? What do we contemplate on when lying down under the most common presence in our lives? Why do we lie there and what do we expect of this warmth? In an island where the sun is dominant and drives us there anything can happen under a burning sun, from salvation to destruction. Join us on the sand(ammos) under the burning sun and let ammophila plants entangle you there until you find what you seek for…
