A shell on a beach,
its form traces memories of the waves.
Every material contains memories of its environment.
We contain also these memories, which we continuously restore and reflect,
as we experience, conscious or unconscious.
Sounds as another material in the air,
can trigger our memories and help us trace our environment.
The long roll of drawing on the wall and
collected materials arranged on the floor are the music notes.
Loosely composed sounds appear as vague memories
from different environment,
played in a very subtle volume,
they merge with the environmental sounds in the space
and make bridge between the space and the listener's imagination
- revealing a landscape inside each visitor.
Along with the installation is a white sketch book,
inwhich visitors can leave their acoustic experience from the installation.
