about

A multi-channel installation set at the Sacristy of the Santa Susanna Chapel exploring the idea of decay, human presence and absence at the church and its relationship with nature and climate.

_

Sonifying the sakristy of the old chapel 'Santa Susanna' in El Polell which was opened for the Audiotalaia Art Residency for the first time. The composition is giving much attention to details which are normally not being noticed and rather overlooked, areas which represent decay and construction, living and dying, past and present. Objects like the dry wash basin, the sacristy cupboard with long and curved candels, the small and big cracks extending over the whole dome-like ceiling were the storytelling objects of the sound installation.

In the fading in and out of compositional sound elements of running water, buzzing bees, stone scree, voices in catalan, spanish and english appeared in various artistic forms of phonetic speech, evolving patterns and rhythms according to the meaning of the word itself.
