Giant Trumpets Turn The Gentle Sounds Of Nature Into A Symphony

EMERGING LONDON ARCHITECTS, STUDIO WEAVE, INSTALL AUDIO ART ON AN 18TH CENTURY ESTATE OUTSIDE OF DERBY, ENGLAND.

 

When Scottish architect Robert Adam designed his masterwork–the neo-classical villa Kedleston Hall and its pleasure gardens–he probably never imagined it would end up hosting avant-garde art from his great-great-great-great-grandkids’ generation.

 

But in a way, Adam was exactly that, in his own time. He stole the Kedleston commission from an older architect, and demolished the geometric gardens and stately grounds his predecessor had laid, eschewing tradition for serpentine lakes and asymmetrical vistas. It was about as avant-garde as landscape architecture got, in rural 1770s England.
