Description

Humankind is intrigued by other life forms, arguably alien life is the one that intrigues us the most. SPACEWAYS TO EARTHLY series takes The Golden Record as an inspiration.

The Golden Records are objects with earthly sound and imagery sent to outer space aiming at establishing communication with alien life forms. What would we like to disclose about the planet earth, especially about humanity if we have the chance to communicate with alien life?

SPACEWAYS TO EARTHLY represents a personal interpretation of the golden records. The objects made for this series are a composition of found objects coated with a sugar-based biopolymer.

About Alves Ludovico Visit Showroom →

Born in Setúbal, Portugal, Alves Ludovico’s practice navigates the intersections of material culture, interspecies connections, and ecological dynamics. Ludovico explores how materials shape the way we understand transformation, preservation, and change in environments and human-made environments. Working with biomaterials for several years, Ludovico experiments with their potential as alternatives to fossil-based materials. Sugar has been a material of choice for Ludovico, with its ability to dissolve and crystallize, which mirrors shifting states of memory and matter. Found objects, marked by past use and industry, introduce layers of history and adaptation. By combining these elements, the work investigates cycles of formation and decay, stability and impermanence. Through continuous material exploration, Ludovico engages with the possibilities of reshaping matter, inviting reflection on how materials evolve and how they shape our relationship with the world around us.
