GEET (SONG) :
An interactive, audio-visual experience. Ethereal sounds are emanated by cylindrical aluminium pipes (chimes) when they are struck. They are suspended from a semi-circular arch made out of stainless steel, so that they surround you at arms length. These chimes are cut at different lengths corresponding to various frequencies of sound intuitively chosen, yet corresponding to each other in terms of harmony, making it possible for anyone to explore(create music) despite lack of musical training.
Medium: aluminium, stainless steel
Size: 5’ x 3’ x 6’8”
MANN-DIR : Temple Of The Mind
This is a shrine dedicated to sentience/self-awareness and the ability in humans to conceive an idea and bring it into existence (to create). The intention is to remind the viewer that they inherently possess these abilities as humans, and to encourage them to believe in the power of the mind and strength of body. Hence, in the place of a deity, the observer sees their own reflection.
