Making Up My Mind

2016/2023
8-track sound installation, duration 3 minutes

In my sound installation I reproduce the mechanisms of decision-making by vocalizing the internal dialogue that our brains have when faced with difficult decisions. An empty gallery devoid of images represents order into which the bouncing voices try to settle; sometimes successfully, sometimes creating a cacophony and painting contradictory images to the walls. Patterns of thought emerge: some voices accentuate the previous messages; others have an opposing sound. This cycle goes on and on.

Pilot version of this work has been exhibited at Showroom Berliini in Germany from 13 October to 5 November 2016. New version was shown in Galleria Huuto, Helsinki, from 23 November to 17 December 2023.
