Scratched Surfaces
Scratched Surfaces is a performative sound installation that invites visitors into the intimate sonic world of the bandoneon. The work focuses on subtle elements—air, friction, breath, and micro-resonances—usually hidden within the instrument. These fragile sounds are diffused across an eight-channel system, speaker cones, and amplifiers, accompanied by abstract video imagery drawn from the artist’s practice.
Visitors are free to move, listen closely, and shape their own path through shifting “islands” of sound. The installation includes a live performative intervention and forms part of the doctoral research project Bandoneon Resonances, which explores the instrument as an ecology of relations between body, movement, and space.
