This piece is part of a corona-proof window exhibition at TRIXIE, Den Haag. The window is no longer a barrier but a performative material; it allows the sounds of ice to be experienced through touch; addressing the possibilities of listening beyond the ears. The pandemic has amplified pre-existing aversions to touch; this piece is a way of playing with this exasperated trepidation.
