"The visual aspects of the work provide a kind of initiation and encourage the visitors to gradually transfer their attention to the sound."
In the depths of the darling foundry, Andreas Oldörp has created a visual and sonorous installation comprised of a series of glass tubes of different lengths which are juxtaposed and mounted on stems of metal. Hydrogen gas circulates continuously within the tubes, producing a variety of distinct tones. The slender stems and the transparency of the glass tubing, as well as the gentle, discreet sounds which fill the room lend the installation a minimal and graceful presence - in stark contrast to the industrial atmosphere of the foundry.
