The immersive video installation Invitation to Disappear stages a psychosocial, transcendental techno rave amid the fields of a monocultural palm oil plantation in Southeast Asia, using fog, flashing lights, and stroboscopes. The linear camera journey through the dizzying vastness of endless rows of trees is accompanied by a hypnotic sound pulse combining natural sounds and techno beats, collaboratively developed by Charrière and the British DJ and producer Inland. This dystopian-melancholic film also marks the artist’s collaboration with philosopher Dehlia Hannah and can be seen as a response to the 200th anniversary of the iconic eruption of the Tambora stratovolcano in Indonesia, which plunged the world into darkness and caused extreme weather events — a climate crisis remembered in Europe as the “Year Without a Summer.” The delirium of the rave feels increasingly alien within the human-made grid of the plantation, condensing into a feeling of unease.
