Time Based Editions’ first ‘cover version’, by musicians Ulla and Perila, pollinates ADE DEA, Sara Rossi’s stunning photographic reconnaissance of a barely-lit botanical underworld. Tracing the images with eyes, fingers and ears, we follow the growing and dying pains of a deciduous world.

LOG are Ulla and Perila, each known for their influential and varied output on labels such as 3XL, Motion Ward and West Mineral, spawning descriptions such as “scudding, warm and fizzing energies … immersively sensual, micro-fibrous, spongiform smudged-ambient … brittle rhythms and swirling dioramas”. Their work together often takes nature as both inspiration and sound source.

They collaborate here with Ant Hampton, co-director of Time Based Editions, on the voices and dramaturgy.
