ADS11 is a Royal College of Art research group led by Locument (Francisco Lobo & Romea Muryń) that seeks to document traces of human-induced chemical toxicity and its resulting anthropogenic pollution. The studio uses film as an artistic methodology, exploring the territorialisation of toxins and revealing speculative narratives about the world we inhabit. It highlights the complex ways in which chemical compounds infiltrate and shape the environment, reflecting on the invisible legacies of pollution and the intricate relationship between human and non-human agents and the environments they harm.
