“The History of Darkness” is an Audiovisual installation that takes you on a trip into a universe of astronomical images and sounds. The visual work is mainly based on old photographs, drawings and diagrams of the cosmos taken from old astronomy books. The work highlights the beauty and simplicity of low-fidelity material by using images created without the technological tools available nowadays .Visual representations of the universe have the power to show stages of our evolving self-awareness as a species. Starting from this idea we talk through different chapters about the never-ending impulse to understand ourselves and the universe that surrounds us.
