Blankets, oceanic layers across place. Symbiotic colonisations, sonically intense, revealing their vast, shifting micro-environments.
Moss Listening features recordings (traces) of the inner sounds of common moss species, the soil horizons they maintain and myhychorizal shifts, recorded with self-built microphones. Organ tones mirror systems of circulation and flow, alongside performative objects and touch referencing climate stress and re-connection.
