“Born and raised in Beirut, Sarah Saleh is interested in how sound can affect and shape our experiences, memories, identities, and how it can allow us to relive traumatic events. In her work, entitled Here, there, and everything in between (2022), Saleh invites the viewer to walk through a 10-minute-long immersive journey of soundscapes and samples. Inspired by the practice of audio walks of artist Janet Cardiff, where the rhythm of walking generates a rhythm of thinking, Saleh composed a sound-walk in four different chapters. The notion of home, displacement, and belonging is addressed through the different chapters; each chapter narrates the story of a different geographical location and a specific moment in time.”
