Tiny Sound Sculpture

Tiny Sound Sculpture is a small sculpture made out of plaster. It is a physical representation of the church bell sound of the New Cathedral of Linz AT. The nighttime chiming attract some attention because of a court negotiation. A local resident was suing the parish to silence the bells.

His lawyers actually wrote a letter to the Pope.

“The bells in the Linz Cathedral clock tower ring every quarter of an hour at night. Between 10pm and 6am … they ring 222 times. We therefore beseech you, Holy Father, to intervene … to ensure that the human right of the people of Linz to a healthy and refreshing night’s sleep is respected and that the bells no longer chime at night,”

For now a court rejected the complaint.
