In the midst of the Engadine mountains, the artist duo LULU & WHISKEY embark on a tactile journey of exploration. Dressed in silver suits, the two protagonists move in time with plants, animals, fungi, and microbes. They use their bodies and minds to measure present-day reality, for example, by stroking along the ridge of the Munt de la Bescha piece by piece. Between boulder fields and witches' hills, LULU & WHISKEY talk to mushrooms about their ancestors, walk in the forests of their intertwined brains, and observe how their ever-changing bodies manifest themselves anew. Finger-like eyes - also the namesakes of the video installation - trace sensory transitions and intervening connections.
«Fingery Eyes» captures how treading new spheres alters perception and understanding of life's connections. Four video loops provide a glimpse into the mountain research laboratory where internalized experience and appropriation of the high alpine environment merge.
