Sound Weaver

Sound Weaver (2020) is an interactive sound installation using conductive thread sewn into a custom-designed wall hanging. The design and crafting of the wall hanging were done by Tomomi McElwee of Slaney Quilting Studio (http://slaneyquiltingstudio.com/).

Sound Weaver was commissioned by The Ark in association with the Spike Alternative Cello Festival 2020.

There is geometry in the humming of the strings
… there is music in the spacing of the spheres
