Come to Arti et Amicitiae (art and friendship) the oldest artist association in Amsterdam and practice your taste of sounding tea (cups) by listening to sounds of tea (cups) on the stairs of the monumental building; experience “my cup of tea” – multichannel sound image installation. If you have an old spare teacup you can ad it to the installation (including it’s subtle sound) if you want.. while listening to tea sounds. What memories or associations does the sounds of tea (cups) evoke for you? What does it mean: “my cup of tea”? … who or what appeals to you? … feeling at home… sounding tea… listening taste … identity.. (colonial) tea history… are sounds able to leave a bitter taste..? Come and experience, practice (listening) and share your insides if you want. By taking the stairs you also can visit the exhibition “Update II” of new artist members and watch my animation with soundscape “it’s not my cup of tea”. Ricardo Huisman
