 LOGO DEFINITIVO

Two senses is an empirical, multi-sensory project that combines visuals with captured sounds to allow viewers to holistically experience spaces and phenomena. The natural sounds of an environment have profound impacts on how we experience, view or remember a place. Whether it be for describing or sharing our experiences, reflecting on the past, or for gathering insight into a new community or culture, sound can be an insightful tool.

In this two sense project, we invite you to Patan and Kathmandu, Nepal.

Slow down

and remember,

to listen.
