Sound of Green
‘Warm Earth Sounds for Plants and the People Who Love Them’ at Salt in Istanbul begins on 5 June, World Environment Day, with Özcan Ertek’s installation ‘Sound of Green’.
The installation features auditory stimuli placed along the glass walls of the Winter Garden. The glass becomes a resonant membrane, while the space serves as a speaker broadcasting soft and immersive soundscapes. These broadcasted compositions offer an aural environment that aims to create a ‘growth effect’ for the plants in the garden.
The programme is realised as part of L’Internationale’s ‘Museum of the Commons’ project and with the support of EK BİÇ YE İÇ.

The Soils Project
‘The Soils Project’ is part of an eponymous, long-term research initiative involving TarraWarra Museum of Art (Wurundjeri Country, Australia), the Van Abbemuseum (Eindhoven, Netherlands) and Struggles for Sovereignty, a collective based in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. It works through specific and situated practices that consider soil, as both metaphor and matter.
Seeking and facilitating opportunities to listen to diverse voices and perspectives around notions of caring for land, soil and sovereign territories, the project has been in development since 2018. An international collaboration between three organisations, and several artists, curators, writers and activists, it has manifested in various iterations over several years. The group exhibition ‘Soils’ at the Van Abbemuseum is part of Museum of the Commons. -
