Sound Gardens for Breeze of Air / Hortus Conclusus

Stichting Air commissioned me to design a soundscape
for the exhibition Breeze of Air / Hortus Conclusus at
Witte de With, Rotterdam.

Each architectural plan for a garden at a specific location
was accompanied by a "sound garden" created from sounds
recorded at the location itself.

Rather than illustrate the projects, I chose to interpret
the commission by researching the acoustic properties
of gardens and the possibility of creating a garden purely
from sound.

The sound here is an excerpt from the sound garden for
the Las Palmas project of Kazuyo Sejima & Ryue Nishizawa.
