The work uses the human voice as sonic graffiti, taking inspiration from the Sámi philosophy of placemaking. The recorded voices are narratives by people who have relocated; narrating their experiences via the landscape, objects and seasons while concealing their specific locations. The travelling voices inform themselves while leaving the listener ruminating over the notions of belonging, home, what makes a space a place, language as a vessel to convey meaning and accents that reveal and conceal identity at the same time. The voices, always in flux and moving around in the city of Oslo in the form of visual codes on transport modes are a metaphor to the question of what it means to arrive.
