Marie-Therese Goiser

I am fascinated by the way we learn to see and how visual artists act on it. We learn multi-sensorily by reading a book, watching a film, looking at pictures and photographs. Checking out new digital art online. Listening to music. Eating something new. Visual art is weaved into a net of different kind of sub- and pretexts, of different media. … I love how my art takes over and tells me a story I’ve already forgotten. A story about life.”

Installation “Pick a sound” 2017 (Playground Festival x TAKE Festival, Vienna)

with: Floke und Basti

In this installation, the visitors were invited to play – pick – florescent wool threads that made electronic sounds when touched. The room had a soundtrack, we made from scratch (recordings of shoes, bowls and other everyday objects) and then created a soundscape for the room. The interaction of the visitors with the installation created a collective feeling of connectivity that was produced by being in one room, becoming one sound complex with the people by picking a sound. (I loved the children that had a very positive and curious reaction to the installation. I had to reconstruct the installation a bit after children were playing with our “instrument” for hours.) The installation was meant as a bridge between haptic and auditive experiences that should make us realise our idea of sound, music, instruments and human interaction what was depicted by the room-in-room wool threads that very delicately held the installation together and invited visitors for a collective experience.
