Vessels On Stilts

Vessels on stilts reference museum displays of historical pots and amphorae supported by tripod stands

Talk To Me installation was commissioned by the Crafts Council for the UK pavilion Form+Motion at Cheongju Craft Biennale 2017, South Korea. Through this installation, I was trying to provoke contemplation about the potential relationships formed with objects around us.

The project suggests a playful interpretation of museum displays, an experience that contrasts the traditionally hushed, somewhat reserved gallery environment. The audience were invited not to merely view the work, but to speak to it and explore how voice translates to gentle motion. Talk To Me is part of an ongoing project exploring the correspondence between the spectator and the object through interaction in movement and sound.  

Created in collaboration with musician and sound specialist Moshi Honen. It is operated by tinkered electronics and instruments – light and easy to transport.

The installation that respond to human voice suggests an experience that is an antidote to the traditionally hushed gallery environment. The viewers are encouraged to speak in order to trigger the vessels’ reaction through gentle movement and to explore how voice translates into motion.
