Mosaic Rooms presents sounding towards – –, a five-month project transforming the gallery into a site for listening, sonic experimentation and conviviality. The project is composed of three elements: From–To, an installation by Gaza’s Dahaleez Collective, Common Frequencies by El Warcha Collaborative Design Studio and a rolling programme of artist takeovers.
El Warcha’s Common Frequencies in the upstairs gallery proposes a sonic commons: a shared environment where artists, visitors and communities collectively shape the space. Here, Mosaic Rooms becomes an informal, inhabited and open space, at the boundary between studio, rehearsal space and public forum. Constructed from reclaimed furniture and donated and found objects, the space leans into the domestic architecture of the building, with its rooms scaled for nearness and for the unhurried time of being together. In a moment when the need for genuine spaces of gathering feels urgent, sounding towards – – proposes the gallery as a place to slow down, to listen and to perhaps find a sonic language for moving through this unsteady world.
