SOUNDW(e)AVE

August 16 - 17 | All Day

SOUNDW(e)AVE is an immersive installation inviting visitors to physically and emotionally navigate the complexity of social connection. The structure’s walls, crafted from interwoven natural straw wattles (typically used during construction for erosion control) and wood framing, reflect the organic, reciprocal nature of feedback: a process that is alive, layered, and rooted in relationships. As visitors enter SOUNDW(e)AVE, they are invited to reflect on the question: “What do you care for?” As their voices are recorded and layered into a generative audio loop, the installation becomes a collective soundscape—a weaving of care for people, places, and more-than-human worlds. Feedback, in SOUNDW(e)AVE, is not linear—it is not criticism handed down or opinions exchanged in isolation. It is instead a shared process of discovery and dialogue. Just as traditional wattle construction weaves disparate twigs into a single structure, feedback interlaces individual perspectives into something stronger and more resilient.
