HARBINGER
Join us for a sound performance that animates the scenographic walls of the exhibition THEY ARE PLACES WITHOUT LEAVES as resonant architectures, transforming the space into an expanded sonic field. Together, Luis Lecea Romera in collaboration with S*an D. Henry-Smith engage in a practice of lowercase music, where almost imperceptible sounds are amplified to extreme levels. Weaving vibration into sculptural sonic textures, a shared improvisational language unfolds through the layering of field recordings, vocalisations, intervened instruments, and amplified objects.

sing the wall in grains of resonance
