Whispering table

​"Whispering Table" is an interactive sound installation to encourage visitors to engage in the communal act of dining, symbolizing universal communication and shared human experiences. The installation centers around a large, round table set with empty ceramic tableware, highlighting the universality of dining as a shared human experience. When visitors lift these seemingly ordinary bowls to their ears, the objects begin to "whisper," sharing narratives about the cultural and religious traditions of four distinct cultures. ​The installation fosters an intercultural dialogue by allowing the tableware to "converse" with each other, depending on their placement on the table.
"Whispering Table" has been showcased in various international venues, including the Tabakfabrik at Prix Ars Electronica in Linz, TENT London, the WRO Media Art Biennale in Wroclaw, and the Kilkenny Arts Festival in Ireland. The installation was also recognized with the D&AD Graphite Pencil for Environmental Design in 2010.
