INSTALLATION
Cultural Spaces
Leonie Roessler
Curated by Lina Sunish Vincent
Time: 11:00 – 20:00
Venue: SUKERKAR HOUSE, PANJIM
Leonie makes people aware of the cultural and acoustic aspects of the sounds that blend into the spaces we occupy. Some sounds—in nature, of outdated technology, or old modes of transportation—become extinct and new ones take their place.
Leonie had documented these sounds and those which are particular to a certain culture and place, and turned them into compositions and archives for The Story of Space. This installation was made up of 4 separate pieces from The Netherlands, Lithuania, Iran, and India. Listening to them was an experience which brought attention to the way we perceive the sounds around us, especially the ones we often tune out.
