The Whispering Forest is an interactive audio-visual installation. This immersive dark and ferric environment is a journey into memories from the childhood, unconscious fears of the unknown as well as the discovery of a new world. Nature is becoming human, whispering trees are starting conversations when a human being walks by, vegetal creatures are taking life, spreading lights, bouncing, whispering, sometimes screaming...

The Whispering Forest records the sequence of each visitor particular moves and forestalls the behaviour of the next passenger, leaving a permanent markage of the passage of the human beings in this imaginary landscape.

Technical Description

 

Most of Emmanuelle Gallin's interactive installations are immersive environments exploring the unconscious perception of imaginary worlds inspired from fairy tales of the childhood. When entering these installations, visitors are deep in an unknown environment they need to discover whilst facing their own remembrance. As for The Chamber Of Experimentation (installed in the center of Paris for a few days in 2003), The Whispering Forest invites you to a wonderful journey.
