Case No.027-5-28: Street Markets

This site-specific sound installation was part of a larger group show called “Department Store”. I thought it would be interesting to put the sounds of market places in India and in Chicago together in one confined space. These two markets are similar in spirit, yet so far apart both geographically and characteristically. And these trends manifest themselves in the sounds as well — there are times when the sounds from these two places are indistinguishable, and at other times the sounds could not be further apart.
