Soundscapes

Original Sound Baths & Audio Recordings

In 2020, Sonja Kanno launched the Innenwald (Inner Forest ) project which includes art installations, Indoor Forest Bathing, and Intuitive Painting Workshops. To create a more immersive experience, Kanno began recording nature sounds from various sceneries and environments. For the Innenwald Sound Bath for example, bird sounds were captured in Nara's primordial forest and combined with original instruments and computer-generated audio compositions, creating a unique and captivating soundscape for exhibition visitors and workshop participants to enjoy.
