Topped with a horizontally positioned piezo element, 656 steel rods populate a sloping terrain, offering a view towards the city, the plain and their distant activities.

The succession of these points forms a series of lines, following the contour lines of the terrain, meter by meter.

The sound space created by the ensemble of sources, as subtle as it is vast, renders a minimalist composition.

The visitor is invited to move through the space, experiencing countless combinations between the site’s native soundscape and the space unfolded by the installation, both sonic and visual.
