Info
“Spirits of the Fault Line” is a sound journey for two, lasting about 20 minutes, and takes place in the exhibition halls on the second floor of the Tartu Art Museum. Typically, the journey is experienced by two visitors, but on 5 September, participants will have the first opportunity to take part in a guided journey, where the visitor’s partner will be a dancer from the Shaté Dance School
During the performance, both participants receive headphones that play movement instructions, guiding them hand in hand through four exhibition halls. Both participants will take turns playing the role of guide and traveller. The guide starts by leading, and midway through the journey, the roles are switched. Additionally, both participants receive special glasses that only allow light to pass through and are worn by the participant currently in the traveller role.
The journey is available in both Estonian and English, and participation requires pre-registration here, where you can choose a suitable time (6:00 PM; 6:30 PM; or 7:00 PM) and purchase an exhibition ticket on-site. The number of places is limited. Guided sound journeys are part of the public program of the exhibition “The Secrets of the Leaning Building” and take place a couple of times a month.
The authors of the work “Spirits of the Fault Line” are artists Lundahl & Seitl, and it is part of their series of performative headphone works titled “Symphony of a Lost Room.” During the journey, participants will also encounter the work “Memories of the Leaning Building,” which consists of two different installations: “The Listening Well” and “The Whispering Wall.” “Memories of the Leaning Building” was created in collaboration between artists Lundahl & Seitl and Jaakko Autio.
Lundahl & Seitl are Swedish artists living and working in Stockholm. In their multi-sensory projects, the exhibition becomes an interpersonal process involving choreography, physical objects, and time.
Jaakko Autio is a Finnish sound artist whose works reflect interpersonal space, unpredictability, and empathy. They explore questions of identity, dismantle hierarchies, and challenge established ways of being.
“The Secrets of the Leaning Building” is the main event of the art education project “Creative Connections” and is part of the programme of the European Capital of Culture Tartu 2024.
