Wind Chimes

I loved this one, though a fellow punter wasn't so keen. The artist looked at the hands of the locals and made the wind chimes in the same kind of shape and patterns as the lines and wrinkles on the palms of their hands.

 

It was held in an old disused house, which made it more poignant.

If the memories of earthquakes are the fissures and faultlines in the land, the fissures on our palms are the wrinkles that mark our lives. The metal branches molded after the villagers palm lines become windchimes ringing the sound of each family
