Tania Candiani,  Echoes of the Spiral, 2025 (video still)

This video essay explores the universal language of the trumpet shape—a form resonating through nature, culture, and the cosmos.

Blending visual and auditory layers, it traces connections from sinkholes and black holes to ancient instruments and conceptual thought, from alpine alphorns to experiments at CERN. Through intricate soundscapes and imagery, it examines how this geometry amplifies the connections between the human, the natural, and the infinite, inviting viewers to uncover the unseen threads interweaving our world.
