I got invited by this year curator of Vestlandsutstillingen in Norway, to make an outdoor piece to stand outside the museum of Kabuso. There are copious amounts of rain on the west coast of Norway, and I’ve always wanted to create a work that is using the rain to generate a movement or a development.
The rain is collected through a funnel made of ceramics, and drippes down into the ground, where a mechanism hits a bell once enough rain has come. If you stand in the rain and listen, a bell will chime once in a while.






When there is not rain, the visitor could use a watercan to activate the sound. The watercan was standing on the opposite side of the garden, just next to a fountain.
