You Are Hear - A Muriwai Symphony | An experiential installation exploring the act of embodied listening and the material alchemy of visualising the unseen.
Soundscapes comprising of three landscapes at Muriwai at a moment in time and space, translated into crafted material forms making the invisible element of sound … visible. A gentle nudge to the art of giving attention to wonder, beauty, joy, loss and kinship to this living Earth … now.
Recorded soundscapes of the rockpools, the Tākapu colony and the Kauri forest are revealed through the alchemy of liquid and light. Using digital technologies and traditional crafts methods, these sound patterns are ‘fossilised’ in porcelain artefacts and textile veils; a way of translating and capturing moments in time of presence in these environments.
The public is invited to immerse themselves in the three landscapes of Muriwai with the soundscapes as their guide.
