Ways of Getting There is an immersive sound installation featuring music by Baxter Ellard and Solomon Hendrix. Exploring patterns of growth and evolution across organic and inorganic systems, this piece invites reflection on how human structures—emotional, cultural, political, and social—mirror the same cycles of change found in ecosystems, environments, and stars.
This piece will play on a continuous loop throughout Saturday and Sunday. We invite you to step into the experience, interact with the sound, and inhabit a space designed in collaboration with Susan Mendoza of the Chi Hive, featuring contributions from other local artists.
Part of Deep Water Lab, an initiative supporting local early career artists.
