When we approach abandoned places through a creative discovery of sound we can be led to a reflection on a controversial aspect: sound is emarginated in a world where visual predominate as much as abandoned places are left behind for their innate functional uselessness.
Focusing on marginalized areas and abandoned places can lead us to a different sense of experiencing the territory, taking out from the drifts and the folds of the borders an alternative and sustainable way of approaching (and reappropriating) the landscape in the post-digital era.
After a residency of some days spent in the Vallagarina rural region (Trentino), the Korean sound artist Jiyeon Kim has played a performance based on material and sound captured in some places of this area.
