Susan Philipsz on Slow Fresh Fount

In this video Susan Philipsz elaborates on how she approaches new spaces and the particularities of her exhibition Slow Fresh Fount at Konrad Fischer Gallerie.

“Whenever I enter a space that I am considering working with, whether it is a gallery or museum, a cistern in Italy or a silo in Brandenburg, I call into the space to measure its acoustics. It is an instinctual response. By projecting my voice into a space, I measure that space; through the resonance and echo I can ascertain the volume, scale and depth of that space.“ (Susan Philipsz)
