sit eat and listen
2014 – headphones – 50 min loop
This installation is based on two very familiar rituals of mine: cooking and recording sound. In berlinskejh model gallery, in Prague, it is usual to have the artist cooking for the audience.
Within a collective exhibition based on rituals and loops, i proposed myself to cook while my colleagues would install their pieces. With that said, i cooked a nice bulgur salad at the gallery and after a little editing, which as usual excludes human voices and sounds that do not belong to the action, i invited the audience to sit, eat and listen to the sound of that very same food being prepared, while they were eating it. It is important to think of what we eat and it is important to think of our audition sensibility too. To combine these two senses was very logical to me, for being two very dominant topics in my everyday life.
