THIS WORK was a site SPECIFIC INTERACTIVE INSTALLATION AT OLHO DE BOI studio and gallery in  LISBON 2019.



LIQUID paint PUDDLEs were PLACED WITHIN A SPEAKER CONE AND THE SOUND OF OCEAN WAVES was PASSED THROUGH IT, THE VIBRATIONS OF THE SOUNDs WARP THE POOL, THE TEXTURES AND COLOURS ARE REARRANGED AND BECOME A VISUAL RECORD OF THE NOISE OF THE OCEAN. 


THE PUDDLES were then PROJECTED ONTO A POOL OF WHITE WATER SURROUNDED BY A SOUNDSCAPE OF BREATH, NATURALLY IMITATING THE RHYTHM OF OCEAN WAVES. THE VIEWER IS INVITED TO THROW A PEBBLE INTO THE POOL, CONTORTING THE IMAGE AND AMPLIFICATION VIA A HYDROPHONE ENSURES THE VIEWER ADDS THEIR OWN UNIQUE MOMENT OF SONANCY TO THE SOUNDSCAPE. 

AS THE PATTERN SHIFTS AND WARPS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE SEA NEW IMITATIONS OF NATURE APPEAR, THE PATTERN SEEMS TO EVOLVE INTO TREE RINGS THEN AS THE COMPLEXITY DEEPENS FURTHER IN TO CONTOUR LINES MAPPING NEW IMAGINARY MOUNTAINS AND PEAKS. 


The sea is one of the most powerful natural sources responsible for the shape of our environment. relentless waves indiscriminately carve and polish smooth everything they encounter slowly sculpting them into ever evolving works of art.
