The Exhibition project Lithic Chords explores stone as a dynamic, performative material through three interwoven threads: its presence in landscapes and memory, its structural potential through post-tensioning, and its acoustic resonance in sound performance. Blending geology, engineering, and art, the project reveals stone as active and expressive: shaping environments, supporting innovation, and echoing across time to deepen our understanding of architecture and matter.
