Elemental acoustic articulations, rudimentary instruments and found objects are activated in performance, folding two distant geographies into a terrain of symbolic ruin and speculative memory.

This environmental audio stream is broadcasting live from the 'End of the World' glacier in Northern Italy's Stelvio National Park. The solar-powered listening station is continuously transmitting since July 2025 from ca. 2.700 metres above sea level in the Italian Alps. We tune in daily to the glacier's cyclical sonic material life, allowing us to witness meltwater rhythms, sediment flows, avalanches, landslides, animal life and the seasonal impacts of weather and tourism entering the microphones, in real time. Elemental Foley by Lia Mazzari will be on show as a solo exhibition at Microscope Gallery in Dalston, London from 10 - 26 September 2026.

However, at the end of the show the mood changes somewhat and ends with bold experiments in the field of free jazz with a glance at the academic avant-garde – it is a rain cloud on the horizon, which takes your breath away with its elegance, impetuosity and pomposity. Happy long-awaited spring!
