Metsän Salaisuudet
The forest is full of sounds that the human ear cannot perceive. Even at its best, our hearing captures less than one-fifth of the rich soundscape that the inhabitants of our natural world are able to hear. Moreover, many species live in places whose soundscapes remain unknown even to most other organisms – hidden in the muddy depths of ponds, burrowed deep inside decaying trees, or dwelling in the gentle flow of a forest stream.
The Secrets of the Forest sound installation reveals the hidden sounds of the forest to curious listeners. This eight-channel work is presented in a natural forest setting, bringing the forest’s secret soundscape within reach of the audience. Among the sounds are the creaking of leaning trees caught against one another, the vigorous activity of root systems during a storm, the summer bustle of an anthill, the underwater baritone concert of a frog pond, and the damp creaking of mosses in a bog.
The sound installations in the Lohkareet series have been recorded, designed, and created by Heikki and Melanie Lindgren.
