Motive: A Sound Installation
Produced by Brittany Severance and Herman E. Servatius
Year Created: 2019
Motive is a collaborative soundscape created by a visually impaired artist and a fully sighted artist. It simulates the experience of traveling roundtrip on MBTA public transit from Worcester, Massachusetts to Boston and back. A minute of time reflects an hour of energy expended commuting. Set as a loop, one gets the sense of a daily routine.
