@ Experience the music of plants! This is the fourth in a suite of sound art installations titled The Four Seasons – Tree Music in the Garden by sound artist Aric Attas. Emerging from the success of Summer Song, installed in PAAM’s Sculpture Garden during the 2025 Secret Garden Tour in July 2025, this evolving suite will explore the sounds of Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring. Together, these works celebrate the changing beauty of Provincetown, creating a place for reflection and discovery throughout the year. Spring Song – Tree Music in the Garden turns the natural space of PAAM’s Sculpture Garden into an immersive experience as the dormant landscape awakens again. It’s a celebration of wonder, perception, and our deep-rooted connection to the constant change of the living world. Using custom-designed electronic instruments and sensors, Attas draws on the bioelectric energy patterns within the large American Elm tree that shades PAAM’s Sculpture Garden. Signals produced by the plants’ own living processes are transformed in real time into harmonic tones, chimes, and ambient layers. The result: an evolving sonic tapestry where trees sing in harmony with birdsong, water, wind, and ambient human-made sounds Visitors are invited to come and go throughout the day, sit beneath the canopy, and let the sounds unfold. It’s a meditative experience—an opportunity to slow down, listen deeply, and connect with the natural world. Artist Talks with Aric Attas Friday, April 10th at 1pm, 3pm, and 7pm Saturday, April 11th at 1pm and 3pm In the Sculpture Garden itself, Attas will share the creative process and the natural phenomena that make Spring Song possible. His practice blends cutting-edge technology with poetic intuition to explore unseen and unheard dimensions of the world around us. Attas’ sound installations incorporate generative ambient music, using data input from the natural world, including living plants and collected field recordings from Cape Cod, sub-tropical Central Florida, and beyond.
