about
Lithic Alliance is a more-than human collective working primarily within the lithological realm, and the energies and vibrations that emerge from it. They work through extended, multifaced projects. Their research digs into the ecological and geopolitical foundation of co-existence, animisms and the rights of nature. These investigations connect vast temporalities to identify queer kinship and phenomenological correspondence.
Lithic Alliance addresses the mineralized co-inhabitants of this planet and their transformations which shape the present, namely their status as massively accelerated mined resources within current social structures and power relations. By investigating the realms of animisms, rights of nature and ways of communicating with a more-than human world, Lithic Alliance investigates connections spanning over vast temporalities to identify phenomenological correspondence.
Lithic Alliance sees itself as a fluid compound of diverse constituents, and seeks to manifest these enquiries through visual and performative methods that solidify in material form, and through collaborative constellations and the exchanging knowledge on a theoretical and speculative level.
