2022

3-channel sound installation

42:00 min

Cat Dog is a sound installation that was situated in the main staircase of Ateneum Art Museum on a stair landing. The work was part of group exhibition Interventions at Ateneum Art Museum in Helsinki 2022.

In the work cozy and porous dialogues step into a grand museum environment as a looping 3-channel audio installation. On this polished site of a museum, echo and aesthetics set designated rules, how it’s appropriate to spend time near the installation. In the sound installation and performance ordinariness and the noble exist simultaneously.
