​Multi-sensory Installation

By Clovis McEvoy, Garling Wu, Christina Zhu, and Joseph Ravlich | RENT COLLECTIVE

​

What does it mean to walk a pathway through a forest? What is the human experience of that journey and how do we perceive the complex ecosystem that we move through? These are the central questions Rent Collective seeks to explore during our residency. Using field research, textiles, sculpture, sound and music, and motion-based interactivity, we want to transfer the environmental features of Spreepark into a cross-sensory sculpture. By offering an alternative way of experiencing and knowing the landscape, flora, and fauna of the park we hope to uncover hidden facets of this space.

The work presented here is our initial prototype, shown at RENT COLLECTIVE's open studio at Spreepark Art Space, Berlin. A large scale installation of this work will be exhibited in March 2026
