Emergency Phone

There were times in the last few days during the install when I did wish this phone really worked. It’s a piece of mine that’s shown in the ‘House’ that Vlatka and I have curated at Kunstaus Graz in the Protections show.
If you do lift the phone all you hear is birds singing.
It remains strangely calming though, in the middle of it all. Perhaps its better that there is no voice there instructing you to stay inside or go lie under a table wrapped in blankets or whatever. Just this sound of a garden or a field, some other place, some other time.
