VOICE PORTRAITS AT GALLERY N. 32

10 ECHOES

Hi, my name is Giovanna Iorio. I turn voices of poets into spectrograms.

"Murmur, tree of voices " is a piece I composed with all the voices of the poets included in this exhibition. Voices in Dialogue is a composition with poets voices and music

All the music by Lucio Lazzaruolo

LISTEN WITH YOUR EYES: The tree in front of you is the "Tree of voices". Get closer to see the voice portraits of many international poets (living and past). They are little transparent cubes where the voice shines with its colours.

LISTEN WITH YOUR SKIN: You can also touch the velvet voice portrait in the frame and on the tree.

Giuseppe Ungaretti Pier Paolo Pasolini Bertolt Brecht Nadia Chiaverini Sara Capoccioni Stefania Di Lino Eugenia Serafini Dylan Thomas Matilde Tortora Angela Schiavone Anne Carson Yoko Ono Fridha Khalo Iromi Ito Sebastiano Adernò Anna Akhmatova Maryline Bertoncini

Please open the Catalogue on Issuu to listen to the voice of the individual poets.

Giovanna Iorio - Sound Artist (UK)

I am a sound artist and I live in UK. I am the founder of the Poetry Sound Library, an archive that preserves the voices of poets from past and present. I research ways to link poetry to the landscape. My sound walks are in UK and around the world. Among my projects there is "Voice of Trees, a sound walk to discover the voices of the most important poets from the Poetry Sound Library: monumental trees or parks receive a poet's voice and they become part of an inspiring sound installation.
