The waves that disappeared—Art duo Cooking Sections track lost tides in new installation

Art duo Cooking Sections, comprising Daniel Fernández Pascual and Alon Schwabe, have opened a new immersive installation titled "Waves Lost at Sea" at Centro Botín in Santander, Spain. The exhibition explores the disappearance of waves due to human activities such as sea dredging, port construction, and coastal development. Working with biologists and engineers from the University of Cantabria's GeoOcean project, the duo researched eleven lost waves globally. The installation features a white fabric structure, 11 slinky-like forms, and a soundscape composed by musician Duval Timothy, with 30-minute looped pieces for each lost wave. The show runs until March 1 and is part of Centro Botín's 30-year program that has previously supported artists like Tacita Dean and Mona Hatoum.
