Hear more | sensory-auditory workshops

Teacher: Łukasz Stawarczyk, Małgorzata Walenda

What does Wawel sound like when we listen to it more closely? Footsteps, echoes, chatter — on a daily basis, many sounds escape our attention. During the workshop we will try to find them and discover how they affect our sense of place.
We invite you to a relaxing meeting in the historic interiors of the Wawel. We will focus on sounds near and far, clear and barely audible. We will examine what associations and memories evoke and how our experience of space changes when we give ourselves time to listen.
Sensory and auditory exercises will become an opportunity to rest, develop mindfulness and discover the relationship between man, nature and architecture. We will get to know Wawel as a place that not only tells about the past, but also resonates with life here and now.
There is no need for preparation or musical knowledge — curiosity and willingness to slow down for a moment are enough.
The event refers to the recently realized exhibition “Soon Everything Will Change” at Wawel, which deals with the theme of the relationship of man with nature and the surrounding space.
Meeting referring to the recording made this year, available on the educational blog.
