Speaking Stones
At Tallinn’s Adamson-Eric Museum, Speaking Stones examines stone as material, artifact, and carrier of memory, placing medieval fragments and historic carving alongside contemporary art. Pavel Rotts’ Climbing a Memory (read more here) sharpens this premise through colorful resin holds cast from the city’s war-damaged architecture, turning craters and broken ornaments into a surface the body can read through touch and movement. Set among centuries of stonework, the installation brings overlooked urban wounds back into view while asking what fragments can preserve after the structures around them disappear.
