Dijkman&#8217;s labor-intensive process involves activating the conductive material with high-voltage electricity and photographing it through conductive glass similar to that used in smartphones and other devices.&nbsp; The resulting blue and purple halos and irregular linear rays, a phenomenon known as a corona discharge, are caused by the ionization and electrical disruption of the adjacent air. The photographic collage makes visible electrical currents that we rarely see, drawing attention to the extraction systems that support much of the world&#8217;s modern energy, communication, and mobile computing technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"624\" src=\"https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Earthing_Discharge_Marjolijn_Dijkman_2020_small-1-1024x624.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12062\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Earthing_Discharge_Marjolijn_Dijkman_2020_small-1-1024x624.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Earthing_Discharge_Marjolijn_Dijkman_2020_small-1-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Earthing_Discharge_Marjolijn_Dijkman_2020_small-1-768x468.jpg 768w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Earthing_Discharge_Marjolijn_Dijkman_2020_small-1-1536x936.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Earthing_Discharge_Marjolijn_Dijkman_2020_small-1-2048x1248.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><meta charset=\"utf-8\">\u00a9 Fragment from &#8216;Earthing Discharge&#8217;, Marjolijn Dijkman, 2020<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\"><meta charset=\"utf-8\">Partagez cet \u00e9v\u00e9nement sur les r\u00e9seaux sociaux<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"socialLinks socialShare\"><ul><li><script>function fbs_click() {u=location.href;t=document.title;window.open('http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/en\/earthing-discharge\/&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436'); return false; }<\/script><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=<;url>\" onclick=\"return fbs_click()\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"facebookLink\"><i class=\"fab fa-facebook-f\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/en\/earthing-discharge\/\" target=\"_blank\" ><i class=\"fab fa-linkedin-in\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Earthing+Discharge&amp;url=https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/en\/earthing-discharge\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"twitterLink\"><i class=\"fab fa-twitter\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Artistes<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"artisteBlock  \"><div class=\"artisteBlockLeft\"><\/div><div class=\"artisteBlockRight\"><h2>Marjolijn Dijkman <sup>(BE-NL)<\/sup><\/h2><div class=\"artistContactLine\"><ul class=\"artisteSocials\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/600471358\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"iconLink\"><i class=\"fab fa-vimeo\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><\/ul><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marjolijndijkman.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.marjolijndijkman.com<\/a><\/div><div class=\"artisteContent\"><p>Marjolijn Dikjman&#8217;s work focuses on the residues of Enlightenment ideology, the manifestations of collective memory, and the blind spots of representation.
