It is a sound installation with found material. Reinforcing iron, metal pipes, tools, pieces of wood. Through improvisation I can make the space audible. To make the decay audible.
The objects are connected to the space. The sound enlivens the space and makes it tangible. I play on the installation during the performance and move around in the space. The objects are mobile and continue to move and sound automatically in spiral circles. Finally, I play long notes on the clarinet. Two voices from the gallery respond and join in. The echo from above.
Performance text:
Only in its dissolution, in its decay, does sound become audible. Before that, it exists pupated in space.
In its spiraling, circling, protective shell around its center. A thin skin of silence.
