THE LAST WAVE
ABOUT
The Last Wave is a kinetic installation composed of two monumental frame drums, suspended in separate rooms. Hanging from the ceiling at a height of nearly two and a half meters, the drums are set into slow, rhythmic motion by linear actuators, their movement gentle yet persistent like the breath of the sea.
On both sides, the stretched membranes conceal small metallic spheres, grains of sea sand, pebbles, and shells. As the drums begin to move, these fragments of the shore roll and whisper across the surface, recreating the murmur of waves and the shifting rhythm of tides. The room becomes a resonant vessel - a space where motion transforms into sound, and sound into memory.
