Listening Ground
Listening Ground lets you feel sound instead of hearing it. Vibrations move through the ground and into your body, through your feet, your hands, or when you sit still. What you notice depends on how you come into contact with the surface. The ground becomes part of the work. It carries traces of movement and time. No instructions, no right way in. Move around or stay in one place. It begins with attention. Slow down and the ground starts to speak. Shared, but never the same for any two people.
