Listening as Public Encounter

Listening as Public Encounter

In the fall semester 2025, as part of the seminar Production in the Master’s Programme in Art and Public Space, students developed site-specific sound works for public presentation at Spikersuppa.

The seminar was structured as an open call, inviting students to conceive, produce, and present sound works grounded in a specific site and responding to its historical, environmental, social, political, and acoustic conditions. The works take the form of pre-recorded sound compositions played through speakers, foregrounding listening as an embodied and collective experience in public space.

Opening on Thursday 15 January at 17:00, the exhibition approaches sound not only as artistic material, but as a mode of public encounter. Through the translation of conceptual research into technically realised works, the students explore how sound can activate public space, challenge habitual modes of listening, and generate new relations between place, audience, and everyday life.

The works invite passersby to pause, tune in, and experience how sound can subtly transform public space, opening it to reflection and imagination. Together, they explore sound as a relational medium that reshapes how we move through, inhabit, and share our surroundings.

The exhibition can be listened to from 15 January to 3 March 2026 at Spikersuppa Lyd Galleri, located at the Spikersuppa ice skating range.
