A Big Stitch
(2025) part as Studija Air, Funded by Goethe institute, European Union @culturemoveseurope and Svenska Kulturfonden
A Big Stitch handles auditory memory as a way to preserve information we can’t necessarily see. Engraved into the skin of the wood, processed one, it stays on the surface like a scar does after it’s stitched up. Using the graphical similarity of a heartrate monitor (ECG) and a soundtrack, it contextualises a way to understand nature. A landscape is temporary, it always changes. Tree trunks are like reservoirs, little data banks; they store sound. However the function is very much determined; either they are resource for goods, or they are protected as heritage.A Big Stitch refers to an act of reparation and reconstruction. When erosion in effect takes things apart in the landscape. When human behaviour does the same to it. When a cultural heritage site is on the edge to disappear. When different forces stretch the landscape to left and right.
A big stitch is needed, to repair, to maintain, to lift back up. .
Combining site-specific research and recordings made with hydrophones and fieldrecorders, these site-specific notes take shape as an audio installation with a feature of 10 meter long wooden stitch and collective soundwalks around the UNESCO heritage site of Kuldīga.
