On the occasion of his piece RedSkyFalls, on display at the Portuguese Pavilion in Venice at the Biennale 2026, Alexandre Estrela presents Replicas, including one at Galeria Zé dos Bois in which fruit flies, as sentinels, respond in real time to seismic activity.

In connection with his piece RedSkyFalls, on display at the Portuguese Pavilion in Venice at the Biennale 2026, Alexandre Estrela presents a series of Replicas. These Replicas are characterized by alerting to high-risk seismic activity in geographically distant locations. For Galeria Zé dos Bois, a Replica was conceived in which fruit flies, or sentinels, respond in real time to nearby and distant seismic activity through a pre-digital sensitivity. Under close observation, we can recognize in the behaviour of these artificial sentinels the infra-signals of the subterranean disturbances that, from time to time, erupt in this ecosystem. The sentinel flies, enclosed in appropriated logos of the precursor of the process-poem Wlademir Dias-Pino, wander and react in synchrony with the seismic activity of planet Earth whenever it declares a tremor. Monday to Saturday, from 18h to 22h. Credits: Curated by Ana Baliza and Ricardo Nicolau.
