Marsh Melodies and the Breathing Ear – Sara Zalek & Norman Long
@ Big Marsh Park
11559 S Stony Island Ave, Chicago, IL 60617
Opening Saturday, June 7th, from 5PM - 7PM
Join Sara Zalek & Norman Long for a soundwalk along Big Marsh’s expansive and recovering landscape/soundscape. The artists write, “As a silent mass, diverse and in solidarity, we listen out for and to the layers of sounds most often tuned out or discounted, points of unity, resonance, dissonance, and divergent noises. Our walk includes meditation practice, ear calibration exercises, interactive recording demonstrations, and performance.” Big Marsh Park is located at 11559 S Stony Island Ave. We will meet at the pavilion or covered meeting area.

For several years, Long and Zalek have documented, researched, walked, and led soundwalks at Big Marsh and other remediated areas in the Calumet region through the support of Midwest Society for Acoustic Ecology.
