I met Anna Schuleit while at The MacDowell and was deeply, deeply moved by her work. Her site-specific installation, Habeas Corpus, filled the empty, destroyed halls of the Northampton State Hospital with the sound of The Magnificant/Harmonia Mundi. A song to release the souls of all those who had lived and died in the institution. A haunting and profoundly emotional experience. I encourage you to see the documentary made about her efforts.
If Anna can make a building sing, then you can make yourself sing.
