Color and sound are connected by their movement through space as wavelengths, which have both a visual and a material component. This movement can easily be demonstrated visually when light passes through optical prisms or water particles and separates into wavelengths, producing a rainbow effect. Similarly sound, an energy produced by vibration, can travel through different mediums and be detected by our hearing or by a transducer, and also observed as the popular Chladni resonance patterns. Artists who creatively transform materials naturally present the wavelength phenomenon in their practice.
In this exhibition, we present Melissa Staiger’s wavy spectrum with Chaconne Klaverenga’s black pool and Cindy Sherman “on ice.”
