Volver a la Naturaleza

Birdsong, whistling winds, babbling brooks… Carlos de Hita, a naturalist who captures and records sounds to tell stories about the natural world, loves to find acoustic spaces in paintings. He is convinced that artists who spend time painting in nature are influenced by their prolonged listening experiences. Based on this idea, de Hita invites us to venture into the audible projection of art and connect with the reality of the painted scene on a deeper level.
