Live and Breathe is a site-specific sound work whose material consists of sound recordings from the art gallery's ventilation system, transformers and various electronic systems, which were recorded during times when the art gallery was closed to the public. The material has subsequently been analyzed, reworked, amplified and composed into a dynamic sound work for six speakers.

Live and Breathe is an amalgam of sound waves from the machines that operate in the background of our modern buildings and signals from complex protocols designed to pass unnoticed. The sound work thus reconstructs the protocols by allowing the inherent frequencies and tones to appear in a new form.
