It stands here as an ambient and architectural lie. My wish is to explore the boundaries between function and fiction; the (in)stability of an event at the edge of the frame.This “fictionalization of function” raises a question: what truly sustains the structures that we trust? Do we trust our intuition that something is awkward in this room?&nbsp; Text by Ksenija Orelj: “(...) This sculptural replica presents itself in three roles: as an intruder, a host, and a guest, with a clear premise that perfect integration is not possible. The allusion to parasitic structures, favored by the artist, is based on the idea of media betrayal, where “different media, working processes, and even the materials themselves serve to transmit information that go against their primary function.” Seen this way, the parasitic structure acts as an intervention within the system, similar to white noise or error in communication. In this exhibition space, it functions as a fraud — an ambient forgery that, in the context of a culture of disinformation strategies, reminds of the infiltration of fake news into various domains and physical spaces. We all fall for this boom of fake things and twisted reality, which is how disinformation effect materializes in Sara’s sculpture. We are all struggling to find balance in the flood of images, trying to protect our own worldviews.” Exhibitions: 18/07/2025 — 31/08/2025 —&nbsp;AFTER FIRST, COMES SECOND, Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Rijeka, Croatia https://sarasalamon.net/Field-of-Action-Burning-Pleasure Sat, 21 Sep 2024 10:58:10 +0000 Sara Salamon https://sarasalamon.net/Field-of-Action-Burning-Pleasure Field of Action: Burning PleasureSara Salamon public space sound installation plaster, speakers, ASMR stimuli 2024 collaborators: Hrvoje Spudić (geometry, production of objects and sound set up) curator: Lea Vene photo and video documentation: Sanja Bistričić Srića producer: Ana Mikin <img width="5717" height="3811" width_o="5717" height_o="3811" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e2f8b6089908e769d145c1f0357206564397faa01ac6d56c318bd146e5fb855e/1_sara-salamon.jpg" data-mid="218426334" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e2f8b6089908e769d145c1f0357206564397faa01ac6d56c318bd146e5fb855e/1_sara-salamon.jpg" /> <img width="6000" height="4000" width_o="6000" height_o="4000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cf9924d3f2245885837268d8d77cbda8e682d96a58bdeeb6fe2eb70b3a8cdea3/3_sara-salamon.jpg" data-mid="218426336" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cf9924d3f2245885837268d8d77cbda8e682d96a58bdeeb6fe2eb70b3a8cdea3/3_sara-salamon.jpg" /> <img width="5623" height="3749" width_o="5623" height_o="3749" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c446043fed2b0ff2be29d9a2c53dea8d14d575fdfba9e59cfa946c9c6705330e/4_sara-salamon.jpg" data-mid="218426337" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c446043fed2b0ff2be29d9a2c53dea8d14d575fdfba9e59cfa946c9c6705330e/4_sara-salamon.jpg" /><img width="6000" height="4000" width_o="6000" height_o="4000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7be04eb67e319484ecda0b1700ef3fead5472cbc601708f64a713fcc42452986/5_sara-salamon.jpg" data-mid="218426338" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7be04eb67e319484ecda0b1700ef3fead5472cbc601708f64a713fcc42452986/5_sara-salamon.jpg" /> <img width="2000" height="1333" width_o="2000" height_o="1333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e57bc7a5ccf23c16c588016b16f65c2bcd027639a7b74850a12e19eff6a64273/sara-_sume_otvorenje.jpg" data-mid="218426331" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e57bc7a5ccf23c16c588016b16f65c2bcd027639a7b74850a12e19eff6a64273/sara-_sume_otvorenje.jpg" /> Text by Lea Vene: The work Field of Action: Burning Pleasure by Sara Salamon expands the perception of Dubravkin put park-forest’s soundscape, inviting the passers-by to explore the acoustic mirror installation. The elliptical acoustic mirrors use their concave surface to gather and focus sound waves (like, for example, with microphones for bird listening or TV antennas). The sound is sent directly to the ear of the visitors who need to find their point of hearing in space. Organic concave objects evoke moving across a lawn, listening to sound traces and physical orientation with which an ear can catch a manifold sound message. Forms are like shields ensuring an intimate space of listening and complete sensory attuning. The forest’s space is inhabited by soft, quiet and pleasant ASMR1 compositions simulating and sampling the forest sounds and a collage of ASMR voices of different YouTube narrators. In the online sphere, their pleasant whisper is an introduction into the ritual of relaxation, stress relief and meditation. Sara Salamon translates elements of this digital popular culture into voices now synchronised with other soundscapes to re-examine the expected experiences of relaxation in nature. The title Field of Action: Burning Pleasure evokes a stressful situation caused by an intense work environment and the subsequent, often idealised, process of healing in a natural environment. However, the feeling of relaxation becomes inseparable from the accompanying discreet sound irritation and discomfort. The five-channel installation radically silences sounds and thus sharpens the hearing and accentuates physical responses to the captured sound fragments. That way a multifold individual associative interweaving and a rhythmisation of the existing and sampled sounds open up. Mimicry of known sound material both disorients, blurs the boundaries of sound fields and introduces an unpredictable dynamics of listening. The installation is realised in association with Hrvoje Spudić, who created the loudspeaker system and the object’s geometry. The installation Field of Action: Burning Pleasure is realised as part of the art project And Forests Sing, whose development and creative production is the work of the association Umjetnost za grad / Ana Mikin.

Particularly expressed are the hearing stimuli, which stimulate physical comfort and relaxation. The subculture of ASMR content creators developed in YouTube’s digital space, who create ASMR sounds in different niches such as gardening, medical examination role-playing and saving from unpleasant weather, learning history and geography, meditations, general compositions of the sounds of rustling, cracking and whispers for deep sleep and many other.

Our bodies process this sudden realization of the unknown nature of something we took for granted, with horror or hilarity. In a cartoon, for example, the smoke momentarily takes the form of a fence that the main character leans against, and remains leaning until he realizes that his support is dissolving into a mist. The audience laughs, but the character in the cartoon turns pale with chills, aware that they will fall into the abyss because they believed in something obvious. This ridiculous chill of our main character does not arise, we might speculate, only from the fear of falling, but also from the question that emerges when we are betrayed by everyday certainties - what else is also not what it always seemed to be? The audience laughs, but for the character in the cartoon, with the detail that betrays, all reality is revealed as something unstable, impenetrable, or even fraudulent. The detail that betrays reveals that beneath our tentative names and perceptual categorizations hides a terrible abundance, an incomprehensible burgeoning of the renegade lives of matter, media, and social phenomena. Sara Salamon's work surrounds us with "details" that betray - apparently familiar media, objects and processes that smuggle fleeting insights into the depth of their strangeness, unfamiliarity, unpredictability. The archaeological dig pushed us. The pillar we leaned on is moving. A giant piece of chewing gum is taped to the wall of a half-demolished house. The video we watched is blowing up. Concrete smells like earth after rain. The flashes fire, but we can't find who is taking our photos. Through transmedia installations dedicated to researching the betrayals of different media through their unique properties as well as through their capacities for the translation of affective and semiotic contents, Sara Salamon's work awakens us from being tucked away in the orderly obviousnesses of our everyday lives, letting us follow the traces of the terrible abundance of the world hiding at the edge of our domesticated attention. In the presence of that undeniability of everything we failed to notice - all the futures whose beginnings we were late for, all the movements of something ineffable in the shadows of things that our "common sense" interpretations hid from us - all of us who thought we were the audience, on the safe ground of a well-named world, realize that we have always been cartoon characters, staring into an abyss that reveals itself through the evaporation of the obvious support we counted on to save us from falling into the deep unknown of our world.

In the past three years, they have undergone transformations in different cities and translations in the media and exhibition spaces. The first “excavation” was inspired by a journalistic article from The Guardian “’Millennia of human activity’: heatwave reveals lost UK archaeological sites” in which, ironically, English tourism and historical research are flourishing under climate change and thermal warming that reveals buildings under the green grass. Can space perform? The resulting works articulate an unstable atmosphere and tension in the relationship between the observer, space, objects and materials.The unstable atmosphere refers to the performativity of exhibition objects and installations, which most often perform barely perceptibly in front of the audience. Events outside or on the edge of the “frame”, simultaneously temporality and incessant flow, mix humor and anxiety in us. “Archaeological Excavations” deal with the “promises” and “uncertainty” of the past and future - playing with the perception of a missed event through interventions in public or gallery space. The exhibition space becomes a field of translation of signs taken from the public space; in it, artistic documentation abandons thetestimony. Then I stage translations of translations, forcing the materials to perform, that is, take “unattainable” or “opposite” forms. &nbsp;&nbsp; --- 2.

installationelliptic acoustic mirror (MDF board, concrete), speaker, light2020 collaborators: Hrvoje Spudić (acoustic mirror geometry) and Nikola Brlek / Superhands (acoustic mirror production) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Sound Mirror for Debris is a series of sound installations, the first of which was shown in Rijeka in 2021, which address the problems of a city in the whirlwind of history following the conversations with the grandmother. A new sound composition mapping the echoes of empty spaces in the city was created for the 2023 Music Biennale Zagreb. The absence of human activity creates new contingencies, i.e., unforeseeable events, and the author discovers their sound manifestations.The work uses elements of acoustic resonance and echo as a reflection of sound that appears to the listener with a delay. In the gallery, the recordings are distant and focused 2 m away from the sound source, using an elliptical sound mirror. The listening point is roughly marked by the light in the gallery space, and the audience is free to seek a position where the sound is whispered into their ear. The elliptic object is modelled on parabolic mirrors which were used for eavesdropping, before the invention of the radar, by reflecting and focusing sound waves. <img width="3000" height="2000" width_o="3000" height_o="2000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/048656b38bb87ce839217890ce4046959ece87c488ec8963207c36e2cc04c2b6/soundmirror-manji-2.jpg" data-mid="135409317" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/048656b38bb87ce839217890ce4046959ece87c488ec8963207c36e2cc04c2b6/soundmirror-manji-2.jpg" /> <img width="3000" height="2000" width_o="3000" height_o="2000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/20133f70bb1480597a2588997e616567d729070beacc180d79f393b30596f87a/soundmirror-manji-5.jpg" data-mid="135409324" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/20133f70bb1480597a2588997e616567d729070beacc180d79f393b30596f87a/soundmirror-manji-5.jpg" />The work was comissioned for the exhibition&nbsp; 7 Faces of the City as part of programme Times of Power of Rijeka 2020 - European Capital of Culture.

The installation imagines the structural changes occurring in the escape process as a state of adjustment. The entrance of the light into the darkened space converts it into a camera obscura where the light distribution symbolically represents the situation of displacement and being between, neither here nor there. So leaving one and known place results in the dominating imagination of what we might find in a new place. In the capsule of imagination instead of realistic images, we place the desired, often reversed projections that unite the existing world with its untapped potential. The installation suggests a shelter in which the reverse images become a way of survival, making the escape condition tolerable. * period of adapting eyes to the dark condition to see the whole projection is 4 minutes.

Sound installation consists of vertically placed papers that contact read, reproduce the sound of rotating paper with a blank printed (spiral) sound recordings. On the technical level the work functions by the principle of phonograph, paleophone, graphophone, phonautograph and contemporary gramophone - &nbsp;the sound is amplified through the membrane - vertical paper. The work represents an experiment with a paper medium that reads an invisible soundtrack. It is the contraption of one-that-posseses and the one-who-transmits, silently, fragile, invisible, and extremely material. "soft objects" with "coarse objects" are a series of works that deal with the question of how to record tone, voice, noise, and ambient sound images into unexpected materials and what features and characteristics each material and technique adds to the reproduced sound image.

The idea was to produce the sand hill that produces sound. Inside the hill are placed six piezo contact microphones connected to the sound system of 4 speakers that are circular composition in gallery space. Around the central hill there are backdrops and supervising mirrors. The visitors were invited to build the hill and produce and hear the sound. Artis Statement One of the kings built a tower, but did not finish its top. People abandoned and neglected it, without a word… Earthquakes and thunder damaged the tower, the clay got dry, the bricks fell apart, the soil started to penetrate the interior. The big Merodah encouraged me to repair the tower. I left the foundation as it was, and I did not change the exterior either. I made it look as it used to look in the old times. So, I found and rebuilt the tower. I lifted it to the skies. Nabukodonosor II Another source says that the earthquake that brought down the Tower of Babylon, which started to grow shamelessly into the sky, was the punishment inflicted by God, who was frightened by the togetherness of people speaking the same language. He said: “This is only the beginning of their efforts”, so he confounded their speech and made any communication impossible. People went each their own way. The world’s loneliest whale also went its way and it has been doing so ever since. Its song, which is at a frequency of 52 Hz and is therefore significantly higher than the song of its species, was picked up by the US Navy in 1989. Many scientists have tried to explain this, and the latest theory says that this whale is a hybrid, a descendant of two different species of whales. Since the sounds of these giant animals make their entire bodies vibrate, the world’s loneliest whale creates sound that belongs to no one, but also belongs to everyone. Where do we build and tell our stories, where does space create sound and where does sound create space? Can we play with the question of what was first, the form or a sound? &nbsp; <img width="2362" height="1577" width_o="2362" height_o="1577" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0a2e13d33c18f0a78062f65384524ec3e55509b81281c155456ecd8273698225/pze-1.jpg" data-mid="35360443" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0a2e13d33c18f0a78062f65384524ec3e55509b81281c155456ecd8273698225/pze-1.jpg" /> <img width="2362" height="1577" width_o="2362" height_o="1577" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/836b8d64a1d4421066c5922c4dd87994ca6195ad23f1aad2f961e3be8b279dfd/pze-5.jpg" data-mid="35360448" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/836b8d64a1d4421066c5922c4dd87994ca6195ad23f1aad2f961e3be8b279dfd/pze-5.jpg" /> <img width="2362" height="1577" width_o="2362" height_o="1577" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/810e69c585c87006a5a409f7f02e19d50855121dfa26f49212cfb1b930eef5bc/pze-7.jpg" data-mid="35360450" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/810e69c585c87006a5a409f7f02e19d50855121dfa26f49212cfb1b930eef5bc/pze-7.jpg" /><img width="2362" height="1577" width_o="2362" height_o="1577" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4ee60b7282fc934fbb970f464b9b2ff752d656e56f8dc695558d15dca2d70db6/pze-3.jpg" data-mid="35360446" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4ee60b7282fc934fbb970f464b9b2ff752d656e56f8dc695558d15dca2d70db6/pze-3.jpg" /> <img width="1577" height="2362" width_o="1577" height_o="2362" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0d9a0a834a4414bb38b335fd9eede23b17e9139075cba0feb131a2470a85c732/pze-8.jpg" data-mid="35360451" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0d9a0a834a4414bb38b335fd9eede23b17e9139075cba0feb131a2470a85c732/pze-8.jpg" /> Platforma za eksperiment aims to encourage reflection about the visual and the performative. The Platform’s openness to the audience and general public focuses on the idea of participation – what is participation in the first place? – offering people the possibility to express themselves and choose different participatory practices, i.e., activism, social engagement and/or contemporary art practices, in relation to social topics that are important in the context of our living environment. Experiment Platform performed in Rijeka, Zagreb and Buenos Aires. Regular members of collective are Lara Badurina, Liberta Mišan and Sara Salamon. So far thirty participants and colleagues have been involved in projects.

The exploration of the Urban Galapagos began by studying Darwin's The Voyage of the Beagle (1839), which will become an inauguration in the famous work, Origin of Species (1859). In an altered, digital and techno-context, the work reveals a view to the beginning of science research into natural phenomena and which, except for the genre level, is hybrid because the perspective of a discipline merges with the focus and direction of the other, so reading the picture of the coral reef in Darwin's letter contains a description of the biological structure exposed in a language that belongs to the history of art and literature. Urban Galapagos, looking for sources of hybridism, asks whether the perspective of Beagle's traveler to the Galapagos wild world can be presented in the already mapped space of the city? Is it possible to re-colonize the conceptual frameworks of urban space and rewrite them into other languages and other media? In what way can a travelogue be realized in a Known and what kind of dynamics creates the transformation of the wildlife that already exists? RESULTS: Following Drwin's footsteps, a Galapagos adventure became an art-research project that in several levels paraphrases Beagle's journey to Rijeka. The project was initiated by Sara Salamon, Sanja Gergorić and Eva Simčić, 2016 in Rijeka. The research resulted in: Light interventions that were carried out with a van in the city of Rijeka (Sara Salamon, Sanja Gergorić), audiowalk "The News from the Disaster Center" (Eva Simčić, Sara Salamon, Sanja Gergorić), mixtape ala zoo - Come On Kill the Monster Zubcic), folklore postapocaliptic poetry (Eva Simcic), pirate radio - sound sculpture in a radius of 150 for two days and a survival kit for survival of urban life (group of authors).
