Step inside rainy – a meditative sound installation by Brisbane artist Ross Manning that transforms the rhythms of falling water into music for the soul.
Inspired by the chaos and calm of changing weather, rainy draws attention to the simple, overlooked joy of rain. Manning composes with water droplets, turning natural percussion into an immersive listening experience. This work invites you to reflect, slow down, and find comfort in the sounds of nature.
Commissioned by City of Moreton Bay Art Galleries as part of Make Music Month, rainy is a special activation celebrating sound, technology, and the human experience in a digital world.
