Lonely

Lonely

Sound installation
2007

During 3 days in June 2007 I went to the technical room of the Arsenale after the closing hour of the Venice Biennale. Every evening, sitting in front of the central microphone for one hour, I was singing the song “Lonely” (by Bobby Vinton), which was transmitted over speakers all across the deserted exhibition halls.

Lonely, I’m Mr. Lonely
I have nobody for my own
I am so lonely, I’m Mr. Lonely
Wish I had someone to call on the phone…
