A levitating sound sculpture made of 300 wires – David Letellier’s Caten

Category Environment MembersPosted on:

Caten (2012) is the latest kinetic sound installation by David Letellier, Berlin-based sound artist, audio-visual performer and CAN regular. Site-specific to Chapelle du vieux St-Sauveur, a 12th century Gothic chapel in Caen (FR), Letellier sculpted a delicate veil of 300 thin wires, filling the historic site with a magical epiphany. Suspended from two ropes, each connected to slowly rotating arms at both ends, the ghostly structure comes alive, performing gentle, organic movements and a sacral real-time composition.
