Zen Garden
A small synthetic bonsai rests atop a tilted double speaker, forming a modest zen fountain with a calm, steady flow. The sound drawn from a private act extended over weeks, turns something ordinary into a gentle, almost meditative presence, lightly unsettling ideas of purity without insisting on explanation. The shape of the speaker guided the work: its plastic casing suggested a Japanese, yin-yang, ritual quality, balanced by a simple black zen-garden stone. Somewhere between play and devotion, the act resembles an improvised shishi-odoshi. A quiet test of rhythm, patience, and whether the body can persuade the object to respond.
