OBJECTS
Working from a studio in Petaluma, Kallmyer makes bells, chimes, and sounding objects from salvaged redwood, bronze, and copper — each tuned by ear and refined until the sound is right. He trained first as a musician, and came to materials as a way to speculate on the role of sound in the home, the garden, and the built environment.
“By enveloping a space with sound, it transforms into
something prosperous. We can call it an interior made up of sound. Not
all interiors are visual by nature; music as interior is none other than
the interior of the heart." – Hiroshi Yoshimura
