Notice how sound is always flowing to your ears. From its source, it transcends the geometric order of pathways, boundaries and public/private space.


Sense these flows of sound …

Sounds come from all directions—listen left, right, in front, behind, above and
below.

Sound is a marker of space and depth.

Notice the spatial distances between sounds, near and far.

Some sounds are moving.

Some sounds are quiet whereas others are loud and intense.

What kinds of intensities do you hear?

Which intensities affect you? Physically? Emotionally?

Some intensities are sudden, others prolonged.

Notice how intensities change as you move towards and away from sounds.

McClelland acknowledges the Bunurong / Boon Wurrung people of the South-Eastern Kulin Nation as the Traditional Custodians of the lands and waters on which we are placed.


We are a safe, welcoming space for all people.

As a not-for-profit organisation, McClelland relies largely on the support of visitors through entry fees and donations to help conserve and build the collection, curate inspiring exhibitions and public programs, and care for the beautiful sculpture park and bushland setting for all to enjoy.
