Language is the heart of culture. It holds thoughts, values, and ways of seeing the world.

As a cultural artefact, language is inherently responsive, adaptive, and malleable—just like the landscape, which is constantly shifting, shaped by time, memory, and unseen forces.

Solid Echo explores this fluid relationship between language and landscape.

Amber Cronin considers the natural languages at play within the Park Lands, presenting a collection of text-inspired sculptural objects that allude to meaning beyond the limits of language.

Each of the 30 cast pieces collected from the Park Lands, represents one of the 30 Parks that form the whole, marking a connection between individual fragments and the larger ecosystem they belong to.

By collecting and casting these forms, Cronin invites us to reflect on our relationship with the living environment and the dormant lines of meaning that flow around us.
