Death and Rebirth of the Landscape

LANDSCAPE2024, now in its fourth year, is an international call for sound and video artists to reflect on the theme of landscape through the submission of experimental works.

In an era of rapid environmental and social change, landscape assumes a role of primary importance as a place of memory, identity and connection with nature. The call aims to explore the different facets of the contemporary landscape, interrogating its changing nature and multiple implications.

  The first 10 selected works will be published within a limited edition album released by Zeugma. In addition, the selection will circulate within Zeugma’s social channels giving them maximum visibility.

2. Themes

Proposed works should explore the theme of landscape in a broad sense, including but not limited to:

Natural and man-made landscapes: the dichotomy between nature and culture, human impact on the environment, urban and territorial regeneration.

Soundscapes: landscape perception through the sounds connected to our memory and imagination, construction of new landscape aesthetics.

Real and imaginary landscapes: the relationship between man and the environment, the construction of identities and cultures linked to the territory, the dreamlike and symbolic dimension of the landscape.

Landscapes in transformation: the evolution of landscape over time, the impact of climate change, environmental and social sustainability
