A sound and light environment in four telephone booths. With solo, Bernhard Gal continues his artistic investigation of
the perceptual potential and interactions of sound and light.

(for previous works in this realm see a.o. RGB (2001), Klangbojen (2003), belit (2004))


The title of this installation does not refer to a solo performer, but to the intimacy of the percipient
– four phone booths are turned into such sites, offering an intimate experience within public space. The visitors get confronted with their own perception and awareness, unaffectedfrom their surroundings and other persons.

Each phone booth shows a designated colour, for these four light spaces in red, green, blue, and violet Bernhard Gal created
corresponding musical compositions. The windows of the phone booths are covered with colour and transparency films,
resulting in different light and translucency constellations, depending on the time of the day.

The installation was realized with used phone booths kindly being provided by the Austrian phone company Telekom Austria.
