Hi, I’m Silvia Galter

I direct, I perform, I teach, and I build small free tools. I like making work with people rather than for them. By placing narrative into touch, scent, and sound, I build worlds where the participants choose their own threshold.

This is the simple version of the site. Turn on JavaScript to see the photographs, the Orbit gallery and the free tools.
