Stellar Frequencies
Who does the sky belong to? And who shapes the constellations we see?
Stellar Frequencies brings together sound artists to explore these questions, inviting us to shift our gaze towards listening. The works emerge from a research residency at the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory and the Orgov Space Centre, and offer distinct ways of listening to, imagining, and relating to the cosmos.
On view across three venues in Yerevan:
Artists:
- Nelly Ben-Hayoun Stepanian
- Andrius Arutiunian
- Vahan Soghomonian
- Vardan Harutyunyan
- Chto Delat International
- Başak Günak
- Sheree Domingo
- Michael Akstaller
- Garush Melkonyan
- Jan Werner
- Jens Klimek & Hover Choir
The exhibition also presents architect Sargis Gurzadyan’s (1929–2015) sketches of the Byurakan Observatory, shown to the public for the first time.
Stellar Frequencies is co-curated by Jan-Tage Kühling (Goethe-Institut Armenia) and Varoujan Chetirian (NOPA Sound Art Festival). The sound art exhibition is led and designed by Varoujan Chetirian.
