485 Ma - Freshkills, Memphis, Lago de Texcoco, a new video from the The Same Sun /Calendar series is premiering in In Plain View: Transforming Frshkills from Landfill to Lanfscape, a group exhibtion at Parsons School of Design in New York City. It is a follow up to the original project The Same Sun / Calendar which debuted at @tsa_ny in 2018. This new series takes as a departure point my residency with Freshkills Park: Field R/D at @freshkillspark in 2018-2019. While at the residency, we explored various aspects of the landfill. I did propose several other project which I still have sketches of and might post later. But in the end, I decided to express my experience at Freshkills Park residency through the format of The Same Sun/ Calendarˆ, which if you recall, is a video series that explore various sites on deep-time maps.
Perhaps the last time I was in free creative mode, ie before panic pandemic isolation, was when I was working on *480 Ma* a project for @freshkillspark alongside cohorts Sto Len and Jen Liu
480 Ma, is a new chapter in The Same Sun (Calendar) series that I had been on pause for too long.

Brooklyn, New York – Tiger Strikes Asteroid NY is pleased to present The Same Sun, a solo exhibition of new works by Antonio Serna.
Serna’s videos, photographs, and documents focus on unraveling the narratives that form our understanding of history. The Same Sun refers to the star that has been the center of our solar system for billions of years, is the lone witness to all history, and might be the only one capable of comprehending the complete story of our time.
