The exhibition unfolds as a singular acoustic landscape composed of installations alongside individual sound sculptures and kinetic objects. The somber and minimalist look and feel of each piece is counterweighed by the poetic titles that the artist gives them: Whatever You Touch, You Feel a Response; On Earth and in the Air, Equally Tremulous; I Love Hearing You — shifting the viewer’s attention away from the engineering of objects to their sensate perception.

‘I'm more interested in working with intuition and sensing. I want the viewer to not contemplate how a piece is constructed, not to think in terms of concepts. All of that is valuable, but my emphasis is elsewhere — on the music, created largely by nature itself', says the artist.

The exhibition is eponymous with one of the kinetic installations, Near You, I Find My Voice, assembled from sound-producing vertical strips of sheet copper. The natural motifs — overtone petals, trembling inflorescences, and curling vines — appear across the artist’s other works.

The exhibition explores the subtle interaction between human beings and the surrounding world, which the artist treats as a source of visual and acoustic imagery. At the core of Filatov’s practice is a deep study of the boundaries of sonic perception, drawing on the idea of the world as a musical structure.
