Square Archive, parts 4-6 –
Mediahits consists of three different soundscapes. The sounds
were recorded in three different locations that gained media
attention during spring and summer 2013. In spring 2013 horse meat
was found somewhere it shouldn’t be found, the first petition in
Finland against fur farms was declined and the waste water pond of
Talvivaara mining company just didn’t seem to hold.
The work can be heard in a dark gallery space. Pile of materials before the set up. |
Square Archive is an on going
sound art project by Jemina Lindholm and Elina Ylhäisi that started
on fall 2012. The previous parts of the archive have been heard for
example in a sauna. In November 2014 Square Archive will be exhibited
in Gallery Titanik in Turku, Finland.
