Granary Resonance · Open Field Project | Exhibited in Zhejiang, China
This installation took place in an eighty-year-old granary in rural Zhejiang. Using locally found ceramic jars, the work transformed them into illuminated sound vessels. A bell-ringing blessing ritual initiated the installation, after which grains fell randomly and naturally into the ceramic instruments, producing sound through gravity and chance.
Rather than composing sound directly, the installation allowed agricultural material, ritual gesture, and physical processes to generate the sonic outcome. The work reflects on abundance, offering, and uncertainty, emphasizing sound as an event shaped by material conditions and communal ritual.
