Pulse Voronoi
Pulse Voronoi
2024
One cubic metre of crystal explodes into 7,000 unique but complementary shards, expelled in all directions. "Pulse Voronoi" proposes a walk through the resulting cloud of crystals, shortly after the blast. The crystals are suspended in the room, each with a warm light that glimmers rhythmically to the recorded heartbeat of a different participant from the past. Five pulse sensors placed around the room detect visitors' heartbeats which can be heard in the room and seen in surrounding lights. Every new recording of vital signs deletes the oldest one, creating a memento mori.

Kristallstimmen
2024
An interactive installation for Swarovski’s “Crystal Worlds Museum” in Wattens, Austria, features an array of 3,000 suspended loudspeakers, each clad in hundreds of small black crystals that get illuminated when in use. As visitors traverse the space, sensors detect their presence and turn on the speaker directly above them, which lights up and plays a voice message. Each loudspeaker contains a recording from a different company employee from around the world, speaking in their native language about their relationship to crystal, with over 100 languages represented. When no visitor is present, the installation is silent.

“Speaking Willow” is a sound sculpture in the shape of a weeping willow tree, between 16 and 20 feet high, which adorns the entrance of the Planet Word Museum. The tree sculpture is fabricated in aluminum and is hollow, except the trunk and branches carry inside data cables that emerge from the structure and hang vertically, slowly swaying with the wind. The tree is covered by living vine, Ivy or other evergreen climbing plants that warm-up the design.

Metrónomos
Metrónomos
2018
“Metrónomos” is a kinetic installation consisting of eight inverted nooses, which move slightly according to the rhythm of various global statistics on human rights violations. Commissioned for Mexico’s Memory and Tolerance Museum, the sculptures are presented on pedestals, arranged in a semi-circle. The frequency in which each noose, or metronome, sways depends on the statistic that each one represents: the number of forced displacements or deportations, acts of torture, cruelty and sexual violence, crimes against the environment, among others. Each noose contains the heartbreaking rhythm of a different scale, in order to materialize, symbolically, the frequency in which human rights are violated. Together, they create a chorus of sculptures activated by statistical data.
