Buloklok

Buloklok is a sonorous timepiece assembled with underwater glass sculptures that emit ringing air bubbles, generating varied notes depending on the size of their cavities and the air pressure. In this site-specific installation commissioned for Sonic Acts, Buloklok joins Sauvage’s longtime motif of the clepsydra — a water clock that measures the passage of time by water flow. The piece is imagined as a metronome for polypulsating music.
