about

Alexander Iezzi’s Silt (ost) is an album and soundtrack for the eponymous film by Ssi Saarinen, Iida Jonsson, and Ona Julija Lukas Steponaitytė. The film documents a new lake in Likančiai, Lithuania that has appeared rapidly within the last few years – most likely as a byproduct of Soviet Era land policy. Silt is a descent into this foreign body of water. Employing videography from broadcasting and documentation of sudden events, the work encounters the lake from a helicopter, a spectator perspective, and forensic diving.

Iezzi’s score utilizes themes from the film such as bureaucratic collapse and rapid-onset ecosystem fluctuations, and pits them against the conceptual framework of his own practice: the varieties of psychological states, forms of interconnectedness, and notions and aesthetics of spirituality. In the same way that the film’s camera plunges the surface of the lake, the soundtrack acts as a collection of materials, peeling layers, repurposed objects, and strange combinations. Resisting classification, the soundtrack moves from wall-of-sound ambiences, to opera, to metal and more, arranging dissonant sounds like chords out of tune, folk melodies, alarm bells, and growls.
