“52 Hz” is a performative installation about loneliness, solitude, and the boundaries between them, created specifically for the Prospect of the Cultural Center “GES-2.”

The title refers to the story of the world’s loneliest whale, unable to find companions responding to the same frequency.

Inside the installation, a performance unfolds. Designed for a single viewer immersing themselves in the atmosphere of solitude, they are transported from the whale’s skeleton to a typical one-room apartment. There lives Anya, who contemplates the world ocean, rarely leaving home, envisioning herself as that lonely whale.

The interactive environment, along with auditory, visual, and olfactory elements, creates a unique experience, allowing the exploration of the boundaries of loneliness.

EG Production handled the design, production, and installation of the art object, including the 25-meter whale skeleton, modified railway tank, and interactive installation inside. Technological solutions for integrating animatronics and multimedia were also developed.
