Space in sound installation

The purpose of this article is to expose the space as one of the main artistic concerns in the sound installation from different points of view (artistic, aesthetic and philosophical). The spatial thought of the philosophical work Esferas, by Peter Sloterdijk, is taken as a basis for reflection, whose fundamental proposal is that life is a question of form, that any space imagined and created by humanity manifests a way of doing and being, and it is in that place where the essence of mankind can be understood. The works of diverse artists, whose work has been developed to a large extent in the form of this practice, are analyzed in order to treat the experience of space from the sound creation. Among them are Max Neuhaus, Robin Minard and Céleste Boursier-Mougenot. Finally, a connection is interwoven between the works analyzed and various qualities of Sloterdijk’s spatial thinking to expose them as spaces of creation that reveal a way of relating to the environment through what is heard. What is heard and how it is shared are innate questions to the experimentation of this artistic form, hence the importance of the immersion, the listening, the journey. From this point of view, the analyzed works are understood as territories that interrogate artistic and aesthetic listening, an activity with a dynamism that transforms, interrogates and redeems the spaces of life.
