Did You Know?

The inspirational story behind the Sonic Cosmic Rope series is a traditional Korean folktale about two siblings escaping a wild tiger by climbing a rope appearing from the sky.

Description

Made solely of tiny bells connected with rings, Sonic Cosmic Rope is designed to be hung vertically from a ceiling and to be activated by shaking or hitting manually to create sounds of metallic rattle and jingling. In this sense, this piece can be regarded as performative, requiring activation.
