To decode the lithium market, its revolution with the digital era and its relationship to e-waste, green washing and consumer behaviour, the duo STUDIO FUMO proposes a performative trip on a ‘li-scooter’ to the triangle of lithium, in the north of Argentina, where the mineral is widely extracted. The extensive mining also requires a great amount of water, which is already scarce in the region. For their project ‘#XenerationLi #Li-festyle’, the artists’ goal is to create a short video collage about the journey, resulting in a public video installation or screening, and a multifaceted merchandise set to promote the discussion. The creations is critically reflecting on the digital nomad lifestyle and the exploitation of resources.
