Luba Drozd works with sound, sculpture, and 3D animation to create site-responsive installations. Franconia Notch functions like an instrument, emitting a pulsing, droning sound created by a motor vibrating a taut piano string over a slab of granite wedged against the wall like the frets of a guitar. The granite was mined from the Franconia Notch, a mountain pass through the White Mountains of New Hampshire carved by nearly a million years of glacial movement. Drozd says that she “imagined what time and matter are like for the continuously shifting glacier. The sound it makes as it drifts and pushes granite over centuries, over millennia. I thought about how it changes the terrain, our disconnect from nature and its representation in the media, the simulated worlds that are replacing the natural, and the threat to Natural Parks amplified by human greed.”
