The Brookline Arts Center is pleased to present HUMAN GARDEN | Biosounds by Lani Asuncion, on view February 7-March 6, 2020. Join us for a reception Friday, February 7 from 6:00-8:00pm!


The HUMAN GARDEN series is a body of work that aims to bring a focus on how people in urban environments interact with their surrounding green spaces. Urban development and tampering have caused a decline in native New England flora, in addition to causing isolation and alienation within local communities by creating gentrified environments. This project aims to point to the changes and control these types of green spaces have on a neighborhood and city, and how access is decided by location, design, and other political aspects. The exhibition uses a biodata sonification device, like the MIDI Sprout, that is able to take the biodata from a plant. Like humans, plants give off electric bioenergy that can be translated into a rhythmic patterned sound, that can then be sent through a MIDI connection and translate it into music. I aim to create an alternative way of connecting to the environment around us but also to one another. Biosounds will enable visitors to listen to the sounds made from the plants in the gallery and create a collaborative rhythm by touching and interacting with them. Learn more on our website.
