WHAT SURVIVES: SONIC RESIDUES IN BREATHING BUILDINGS

Consisting of three major gallery-based sound installations and a 
program of commissioned works for two sound stations in the building, 
WHAT SURVIVES explores the real and imagined remnants of human presence 
in architecture.

The structures we build bear silent witness to our behaviour—what have 
the walls, beams and girders absorbed and what sonic secrets can be 
coaxed back out of them? Does this ephemeral material influence the 
energy of the spaces we inhabit?

Taking inspiration from Rilke, WHAT SURVIVES conveys the 
indestructibility of energy and its subsequent transformations and 
manifestations.
