Group Exhibition 'Sonorous' Explores Vibration as Communication in Historic Hackney Tower
The group exhibition 'Sonorous' was held earlier this month at St. Augustine's Tower in Hackney, East London. This late-medieval stone building, now a museum open monthly, served as an immersive venue for artworks focusing on vibration as a form of communication. The installation utilized the tower's acoustics, with sounds from the bell and echoes among crypts enhancing the experience. The event highlights how historic spaces can be repurposed for contemporary art in a gentrifying area.
