Artist Statement:
Trace is a memorial environmental sound installation that is site-specific to the network of hiking trails near the Burgess Shale fossil beds in Yoho National Park, British Columbia. The installation transforms the network of hiking trails into a physical interface to a database of sound recordings. Recordings are made as memorials to people who have died or as pieces that explore themes of death, loss and transformation more generally.
