The House of Silent collaboration
project created for Kalejdohill, as part as the Inhabitant
Zero Residency Program. Together we designed a practice
of silence, for the locals and for ourselves. Our project proposed to
collectively exercise silence and meditation practices in order to
create new bonds among the participants, but also among the place and its
future.
We had been working and living under complete silence during one month. We
invited the community of Järfälla into the
performance. Everybody was able to join us and spend time with
us in a creative process but inside the house nobody allow to speak.
With the visitors - during workshops - we
developed a large scale map of the neighbourhood. We choose embroidering as a
meditational technique for our project. The idea of the project was to
discover the active togetherness. By not talking, we listen more actively, and
without speech we do instead of asking.
The community developed installation
accompanied with an audio recording, proving the practice of silently active
togetherness. The recorder [ZOOM] is capturing sound sources in the centre
with clarity and with a full 360° stereo. The audio played during the exhibition
introducing the sounds of the house to evoke an acute awareness of the
surrounding space.
