Composed of three sculptures equipped with LiDAR sensors, Resonant Ziggurats creates a space where presence becomes audible.

The sculptures detect the positions, distances, and movements of nearby visitors, translating these spatial relationships into sound in real time. What is usually silent within an exhibition becomes, here, essential to the composition of the work.

Each sculpture is built from layers of wood calculated according to the golden ratio.
This proportional logic organises the physical structure of the objects, while the sound system they generate is driven by the organic paths of visitors. When no one approaches, the sculptures remain withdrawn, emitting only a minimal, continuous tone. It is the trajectory of bodies that sets the installation in flux, bringing it to a living state. Each movement triggers a singular relationship between body, object, and space, giving rise to a fleeting sonic configuration.

Resonant Ziggurats also seeks to redirect LiDAR data, a radar technology commonly associated with detection and surveillance, toward a more sensory function. Here, detection does not serve to control presence, but to reveal it poetically. Visitors are not recorded as data; instead, their passage becomes an ephemeral sonic testimony.
