Using the pavement of the hall, an oriental-inspired garden was built, based on earth and other elements, such as stones, canyes, volcanic stones,… all ordered by means of plots – the delimitations by wood margins of green color.

In the plot there are 20 objects, with green marks/boxes, which are always composed of a background of reproduction of an impressive landscape and of the elements that have been used in the construction of the garden on the pavement, such as earth, grass,… The boxes contain more different elements: human hair, grass, broken glass, legumes, string, dry leaves, pressed clothes, bird feathers, broken crystals, llegums, cordills, fulles seques, roba premsada, bird feathers, nut shells, egg shells, beach sand.

Actions carried out: 6 tape recorders available to the public, with 6 independent programs so that the spectator himself can compose a listening program. The programs are: Wind, Oriental Bells, Rain/Storm, Murmurs, The Sea/Gulls, shouts and screams.
