“…In this composition, landscape and space-sound deliver each other further impulses enhancing the multifariousness of the experience space/sound. The coarse topography of the stinging nettles render material tangibility to the sounds – vice-versa, the sound provokes a comprehensive awareness of the space, forcing the recipient to get immersed in the architectural construction.”

Nature returns by stinging nettles into our cultivated landscape when it is nor anymore maintains. The lily, sign of purity, shines upon the wild field of stinging nettles. - And where is art? It is invisible, but audible. Surround sound out of hidden loudspeakers create an imaginary space. Visitors may be confused and astonished.
