## Concept (curators)

The eclipse itself is the visual artwork. The exhibition invites listeners to **hear** while experiencing the real eclipse outdoors — less screen time, more sky. Sound only; no video or screen-dependent entries.

## Geographic anchor

The Wrong Biennale — **Partida Maitino 2069c, Alicante, 03295, Spain**. This site is the atmospheric and astronomical clock for works in this folder.
