SONIC ACTS: In Curved Water by Tomoko Sauvage

Sound artist and musician Tomoko Sauvage is best known for her experiments with hybrid instruments combining water, ceramics, sub-aquatic amplification, and electronics. Her work ‘In Curved Water’ is part of SONIC ACTS BIENNIAL 2022 exhibition, along with more installations, workshops and public events to be announced.

The sound installation is created by waterdrops playing a random percussion, as suspended crystal ice blocks melt and drops ceaselessly fall into twelve procelain bowls of water. As some are amplified and others ring naturally, a trompe-l’oreille effect is created and electronic and acoustic sound are blurred.
