Artists Notes:
The structure, literally, is a material that exists as limited information, defined in a closed and finite reality. Sound is contained in the structure as part of the happening within the structure, and around it; But even when the happening had past, the sound remains intact, floating, burned into dense layers as simultaneously existing derivatives, as a known testimony to the thing itself, and as an unknown testimony to the thing which was lost. The installation, ‘If the Walls Could Speak', carves the layers of sound, unfolds time, and decipher the local history which existed and still exists.
