Join Pioneer Works for a public opening celebration of ANIMAL [the listening gym], a physical listening environment that renders the body a conduit for sound.

Conceived by artist and composer Ash Fure (2024 Creative Capital Awardee) in collaboration with architect Xavi Aguirre (stock-a-studio), the exhibition features a custom-built system of contact-driven architectural machines designed to confront listeners with the physical force of sound. Riffing off the logics of circuit workouts, these stations amp the senses, corral the focus, and activate a heightened relational field that functions entirely outside language.
