Hands is a "cloud" sound installation collected by two hands placed at the base. It is composed of small dusty objects in various shapes and sizes: boxes, abstract elements, mental objects that recall metaphysics, Euclidean geometry, Platonic solids and alchemy.
The sounds, inspired by the first Flemish choral compositions, are emitted by the different speakers placed inside some of these objects: they create a continuous dialogue between memory and evocation.
