Listening–gathering. Sound materializations
(ongoing)
Sound is an energy that vibrates through
substances and can therefore be the driver or result of movement, action or change. How
is it used and experienced? How does it
impact the landscape, the environment and
living beings? What sounds marked a turning
point? What is the rhythm of change?
In this ongoing project I investigate the relationship between sound, memory, and landscape from a scientific, social, and artistic perspective. I explore how sound leaves a trace in history and spaces and how it can reveal new narratives about our world. Through photography, but also video, sound recording, and writing, Listening–Gathering is built as an open and expansive work.
