MOSS - Mapping Otherworldly Soundscapes

room 20 ECHOES

Location: Moss, Østfold, Norway

Inspired by maps, meanderings, and musings, Brona Martin’s locative sound walk draws you into the hidden layers of Jeløy’s ecosystem. Weaving through forests, farmland, and coves near Galleri F 15, each route highlights local histories and the interplay of natural and cultural elements.

Along the way, designated listening spots—‘Echoes’—provide moments of focused reflection, amplifying shifts in wind, water, and rustling foliage, as well as the faint echoes of past stories. By guiding you across these sonic micro-environments, Martin reveals an ever-evolving tapestry of place, reminding us how human and nonhuman voices converge in this coastal landscape. Crossing paths with other artworks, the walk enriches our understanding of Moss’s creative heritage and invites new narratives to emerge.

The sound walk invites listeners to move horizontally between worlds, forging renewed ecological awareness in each resonant step.

* PLEASE USE HEADPHONES FOR THIS WALK! * Some of this walk involves a hike through the forest. Coming from Moss to the Gallery through the forest is downhill and maybe easier.
