"Leaning Sounds" is an interactive installation inviting the user to apprehend and perceive the environment through the use of sounds. By touching and moving around the objects, one can reach different sonorities and reveal the space around them.

Poetry of sound in space

Spaces we live in are defined by function. In the space we offer, sound becomes an architectural element giving a new meaning to the environment. By controlling and shaping sounds, the user appreciates space in a unique way. The physical pieces that lie in it are the receptacle of diverse sonorities, each of them specific to a point in space. It is by seeking to apprehend these different sound points that the user takes possession of the place. We believe that allowing sound to be a composing element of a space is a necessary abstraction. It is by considering our habitats as places of poetry that we would like to widen the field of our sensory prospects, introducing into spaces a rational yet dreamlike perspective. We aim for the user to discover his environment through the poetic and playful use of sounds. Tones shall become vectors for discovering space, giving meaning and function to shapes that had none before.
