By Jace Chen
A virtual audio exhibition that explores the different environmental influences that make up a language, a family, an inheritance. An attempt, through studying the sounds that allow us to communicate, to capture the ways language can hold a relationship, the love that is felt through warm hands, and the voice a grandmother uses to speak to her grandchild.
