The 2023 edition of STRP Festival opens in Eindhoven (NL) examining “The Art of Listening” with a city-wide conference, performance, and exhibition program. The latter features 14 mostly new works that boost receptiveness to “our fellow human beings, plants and animals, and nature.” French artist Guillaume Cousin’s “air sculpture” Le Silence des Particules (2023, image), for example, “amplifies the ‘voice’ of seemingly invisible elementary particles, by recreating a vortex through a ring of smoke.”
