This site-responsive work was created in an old Mill House - Kvernhaus - on site at the Nordic Artists' Centre, Dalsåsen, Norway.
Drawing energy from the small waterfall - fossen- the work drove a set of organ pipes set in A? Major pitch, made from local Birch.
Harnessing the outside weather, a drawing device built up drawings over the days and nights. The water level in the stream was visualised inside through the use of floats and pulleys.
The installation still remains on site on the west coast of Norway.

This old mill house at the Nordic Artists Centre attracted my attention for a site – based artwork. It was next to a small waterfall, and full of old mill – parts.
