Drawing on their shared interest in sound and its relationship to the body, artists Cara Tolmie and Julia Giertz collaborated to make a suspended, sonic sculpture entitled Llac. The curved metal sculpture hangs within the pond, emitting irregular calls, tones and taps towards the multi-layered vocals playing through the speakers overhead. All of the sounds used in this piece are vocal recordings made onsite at Art Lab Gnesta by Cara during a residency in March 2022. These include her mirroring the uncanny sounds of the melting lake with her voice, exploring haunting reverberations in the brewery hall and conducting a cyclical vocal practice she calls Internal Singing.
Llac is a permanent sonic sculpture that reverberates, sings and contracts, using the sonic as a way to reverberate and call between multiple watery beings.

Commissioned by Bronwyn Bailey-Charteris and Artlab Gnesta as part of 'High Tide, Fine Line'
