The artist duo Lundahl & Seitl offer you a museum visit of the S.M.A.K the museum of contemporary art (Ghent) in a way you have never experienced it before. Their ‘Symphony of a Missing Room’ is both a collective and an extremely personal journey around the museum and its existing curatorial space. Lundahl & Seitl let you discover a different side to the museum, by stimulating and manipulating all your senses.
Via wireless headphones, a voice takes visitors, led by performers, on an itinerary that traverses layers of physical and imaginary architecture of the museum. By the use of multi-sensory illusions and sound recordings the visitor’s attention is steered away from the visible and tangible world and diverted into a new perception of the self, time and space. ‘Symphony of a Missing Room’ plays with light, darkness, silence, sound, touch and observation.
Lundahl & Seitl previously brought projects to Tate Britain and Tate Modern in London, the National Museum in Stockholm and, more recently, they did ‘Symphony of a Missing Room’ in the M Museum in Leuven.
“Everyone leaves the museum stunned and amazed. A must.” – De Morgen
