Su.Persenso.ry is a multimedia project that started as a video sketch in 2019 and was shown as such at the 20th Pixxelpoint International Festival of Contemporary Art Practices in Nova Gorica. It is a multi-phase, artistic project that develops through coexistence with urban ruins. On the concrete example of an architectural building next to the new sports stadium in Ljubljana, which stood during the construction process and over the years became a ruin, colonized by nature, we speak about the ruin as a witness of various human actions, but also and especially about the complex and sometimes still speculative physical relationship between entropy and syntropy. An urban ruin, a surreal landscape of failed financial speculation, a destroyed anthropogenic space is spontaneously returning to nature. An ambiguous space where interactions with the non-human can be more unexpected, startling and dangerous than in more regulated areas. Humans and non-humans participate in the processes of transition to a new state. Inside the concrete skeleton, I encounter a newly formed ecosystem and focus on microorganisms, specifically cyanobacteria.
