🧶🛩️🔇”…these war plane sounds are then translated through an algorithm, into patterns and visual codes, which are later woven into tapestries”.
Listen to the 1 minutes interview (stay on the first plane photo to hear) with a visual artist @rom.laico Marco Lou whom we interviewed in Sende.
Read the longer transcript here or visit tomorrow our site to hear the whole story:
“The noise of an invisible land is a project about militarization in Sardinia.
Just to give a bit of context to Sardinia is the most militarized region in Italy and it hosts also the two biggest European military bases.
And my research tries to investigate these boundaries of these spaces, which are invisible spaces because you cannot access them and you cannot see them or perceive from the outside, and it’s also the only element that can make you understand what’s happening inside, is the only element that makes you understand that inside there are pre-war exercises from NATO army.
And these tapestries are abstract at the end because they are just a translation of the sound. So you cannot see the, canonical visible, how we are used to represent spaces. But these abstract representation becomes the only way to symbolically represent these impossibility of representing these hidden territory.
And the representation inscribed in these tapestries that is generated from the sound, embody these impossibility of fully accessing the conventional way, to represent a space. So, in this way, all these elements together, all these linguistic representations, both the visual and the sonic and the photographic, are creating the grammar of the project, to highlight the constant state of censorship of these spaces.”

2026 Sende booking is now open. Visit sende.co or link in bio to book.
This year in Sende we will have one new space, a clean workshop/studio where you can experiment with textiles, electronics and papers.
We already sent a email yesterday to all subscribers to inform about booking.
A throwback to our rainy but cozy days at @sende with a video that captures exactly what we learned there during this year's ECHN Workshop: social media and communication for creative hubs can be slow, intentional, and stress-free. And what better way to approach it than by simply documenting moments from the process?
➡️ If you’d like to explore the workshop outcomes, check out Sende’s toolkit featuring 20 practical tips, strategies, methods, and ideas for low-tech communication.

On Day 3, we will experiment with @denebmar and @ana__paes two experienced artists and researchers working with diverse techniques of ecological processing.
During the day, we will learn how to develop photographic film and create photograms on 16mm using food waste and foraged plants from our surroundings. At night, we will return to the estuary to create rayograms with brackish water in the darkness.
Ana & Deneb share an inspiring project exploring the images and stories held within the waters of the Manzanares River: @lo_que_el_agua_nos_dice

No Dia 3, iremos experimentar com @denebmar e @ana__paes duas artistas e investigadoras experientes que trabalham com diferentes técnicas de processamento ecológico.
Durante o dia, aprenderemos a revelar película fotográfica e a criar fotogramas em filme de 16mm utilizando resíduos alimentares e plantas recolhidas no nosso entorno. À noite, regressaremos ao estuário para criar rayogramas com a água salobra na escuridão.
Ana e Deneb partilham um projeto inspirador dedicado às imagens e histórias contidas nas águas do Rio Manzanares: @lo_que_el_agua_nos_dice
