A look from above unveils the cloud origin, on an upper-level balcony. The thicket floods the space with humming white particles. The sounds coming out of the headphones, as well as the sounds emerging from the balcony of the gallery are an invitation to investigate the space, exposing a unique acoustic phenomena that comes to life as the audience moves around the room. while this Thicket is singing its song other sounds are heard in the space, sounds that we can hear but not yet see, low mumbles and groans and birds echoing from the second floor. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/56cebcd5d210b8bd64e74c6e/t/56d1685327d4bd3f75dd7d0e/1456564307835/ Work - Trembling Piano The object is an initial confrontation with distorted perception - things are not as they sound.

If you put your ear in it, you can listen to what's going on inside the wall - a series of intimate recordings, turning the experience of voyeurism on its head. The hole invites to peek into hidden worlds, acting as a sub-conscious layer of the exhibition. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/56cebcd5d210b8bd64e74c6e/t/56d169cfe707eb3dbc6df419/1456564687380/ Work - Bird Whistle Magical, beautiful hum of a tropical bird echoes throughout the gallery building. As the viewer nears the installation piece it reveals the source of sound - a clumsy mechanical object. The cumbersome process the audience is exposed to through the bird's hum simulates how accustomed we have become to blocking background sound, and points out the vast amount of energy we have to invest in listening to a bird's hum -the most natural, basic experience. http://www.maya-sram.com/bird-whistle daily 0.75 2016-03-07 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/56cebcd5d210b8bd64e74c6e/t/56dd388107eaa05aaabfa2c4/1457338497551/ Whistle - Bird Whistle Magical, beautiful hum of a tropical bird echoes throughout the gallery building.

Since listening in this instance bypasses the ears, the deaf can also tune in. The piece played through the rod is a personal feminine song from the artist’s mouth tot the audience’s mouth, a very intimate and personal moment in this public experience. This installation, as with the Trembling Piano, generates a new, unfamiliar, listening experience. The body of the audience wrapped around the piece. The human organ producing sound now takes the role of the one that can hear sound. the audience is then invited to revisit the first installation through another viewpoint in the gallery space, and with a morphed, physical understanding of its auditory layout.
