Visit to Velano
Raycho Stanev, working with the new Culture Foundation on the Bell project in Bulgaria, participated in a local arts festival in Italy. The installation was built in the village of Velano.
“Details of a Piazza” relates my first impressions from Italy - details of sounds and objects, this is actually what I perceived at first glance having arrived at the place. Everything had to happen really quickly; the challenge was to devise the project on the spot.
The installation resembles a game - eight sounds and eight pictures (all gathered from the square) as main elements which placed together structure a kaleidoscope. The viewer can discover his/her own impression with one move of the mouse which brings about а change in the main pictures, on the one hand, and in the sound, on the other hand.
The sound, to me, is something clear and simple. It has a universal language – everyone can understand it. The installation simply happens, I don’t think about it, I only listen and register the stories/emotions – feelings are universal, too. The sound is a way to reach the core and to play.
