“Paper sighs� (Sound sculpture, 2019) The paper has storage knowledge and thoughts. The meaning that is printed or written in the paper becomes logical when someone can interpret it. Number 12 means completion in numerology, 1 is a prime number, the beginning of everything, the singularity of the universe, in addition, number 2 is the beginning of plurality. 12 is also used to measure the celestial bodies, 12 zodiacal signs, but also it has religious meaning, 12 apostles, Jesus appeared 12 times when he resurrected, 12 are the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Moreover, every paper makes a different movement and every paper becomes independent, singular and ethereal. The sound sculpture is made by one sensor (Ultrasonic sensor) and when people are at a certain distance the fans start to blow, the paper creates a landscape made by the sound of the paper movement. In addition, the paper has a Led light and when the paper is moving it creates different shadow movements. Material: 12 wax papers, 12 fan coolers (5V, 40 X 40 X 20), Arduino motherboard, Ultrasonic Sensor, Sound sensor light.
