Another form of Ololyga

Greek mythology tells that the goddesses and oppressed would gather in the suburbs to practice the "Ololyga" (ritual of high pitched voices) as an act of resistance against patriarchy. The work consists of seven ready-made glass objects, who are each connected to an exciter and a sound piece. The exciter uses the surface of the glass object as an amplifier. The frequency of the sounds make the objects vibrate and create new sounds on top. The sound piece is a composition of several women screaming. Each object has its voice.
