Invisibility of Colour
(2024)Sound installationInvisibility of Colour is a sound work meant to be seen as much as heard. Instead of paint or images, it is composed of people’s spoken descriptions of colors. For this installation, individuals were interviewed in public spaces and asked which colors they liked or disliked; their recorded voices form an evolving sound composition.
Played through twenty invisible loudspeakers concealed behind a large white canvas, the voices emerge in random sequences, moving unpredictably across the surface.
