_Once up on time a tobacco farm outgrew a rice farm
In a 3x3 Art Space, Natalie TSYU will grow a sound eco-system where a kinetic machine will generate, in real time, the sound frequencies of the landscape's memory that once held tobacco and rice seeds. This installation will become a laboratory space of sound, where every vibration resonates through the architecture of the gallery, and our presence becomes an experience of listening to time.
The exhibition is a celebration of history’s enduring whispers of abandoned pipe factory. It invites visitors to pause, listen, and reflect on the delicate interplay of sound, space, and memory. In The Whisper of Time, the past is not forgotten—it is preserved, transformed, and given a new voice. Here, in the heart of the forgotten: history and memory intertwine, creating a profound dialogue in-between time. Step into this realm and let The Whispers of Time guide you through an unforgettable path of reflection, resonance, and revelation. Listen closely to the elusive sound of architecture whisper.
* The core concept revolves around the "Whispers of Time”, encapsulated through the medium of ceramics by Masamichi Yoshikawa and sound art by Natalie Tsyu

Sound as an Archaeological Tool: Unearthing the Echoes of the Past
In the realm of archaeology, the use of sound as a tool for investigation and exploration is a relatively unexplored frontier. While traditional methods such as excavation and surveying have long been the mainstays of archaeological practice, the sonic landscape offers a wealth of untapped potential for uncovering the secrets of the past.

Panel-Discussion: Same, similar, different and other— A cartographic exploration of an exposition from Sørøya Exposition
Listen to the dunkedunk of a boat amidst the roaring arctic sea, bringing you to Sørøya: you are off the coast of Finnmark. You want to go and spend time in a cave. Here you will still hear the noising sea, but also place yourself in time: you are now, the cave is old, during WWII the cave has a place for listening and transmitting radio-signals. Here you are in the Herzian field… you realise that it still exists in the perimeter of digital equipment, bordering unto a very physical world. You are in the realm of an exposition: and for a time it will be your site. We will share this with your during ARW 24 in a panel featuring: Nataliia Tsyu-Korotkova, Nina Tsybolskaia and Theodor Barth.

[Re] Mapping of Being - Landscape/Cavescape/Humanscape
(Re) Mapping of Being originates in a place-memory from the Second World War hidden under many layers of earth. It is part of Dunke-Dunk Artistic Research, an interdisciplinary project in which artists use a continual field approach to (re)read the history of the inhabitants of Sørøya in northern Norway, who went into hiding in the caves of the region in the winter of 1944/45.
PARABOL is a collaboration with Kunsthall 3.14, where Lydgalleriet selects a sound work for the parabolic loudspeaker sited in Kunsthall 3.14's entrance hall. PARABOL has a particular focus on sonic commissions and edits and offers a mode of address corresponding with the exhibitions in the main upstairs spaces. Touching the Reflection by IIA KO is curated by Emilie Wright and Julie Lillelien Porter in relation to the exhibition Fallow Land by Patrick Huse.
