Access with Assab One 2022 membership card (€10)
The installation we have designed for the Assab One space is composed of two complementary parts.
The first, a metal tube supported by thick rods takes the geometric shape of the lemniscate, the horizontal figure 8 often used to represent infinity. Its suspended layout creates an open stage in which visitors are invited to generate sounds using varied percussion instruments tied with metal cables to the “endless colonnade” that devours itself much like the Ouroboros snake. Suppose a melodic line has a linear development in time with a beginning and an end. In that case, the profound nature of drums, cowbells, and maracas is to produce cyclical sound sequences, aided by a beat that forms the basis of the variations generated by the unpredictable actions of the visitors.
The installation is completed by a series of old vinyl LP covers placed on the ground in a geometric matrix; on top of each one, there is a small lit candle to form an unlikely gallery of musical Lares and Penates, evoking in a bittersweet form the ability of music to be forgotten, replicated, interpreted and transmitted over time and space between generations.
