sound it out
Sound It out marks the beginning of my exploration into sound as material, using cymatics as a process for translating vibration into visible form. Rather than treating sound as something purely auditory, the work considers it as a physical force that can shape, structure, and reveal patterns within material systems.
Through the interaction of sound frequencies with responsive surfaces, invisible vibrations are made temporarily visible as shifting, organic formations. These emergent patterns act as traces of movement and energy, forms that exist only through the conditions that produce them.
This body of work established a critical shift in my practice toward process-led and experimental methodologies, where material response becomes central to image formation. It introduced an ongoing interest in the relationship between the visible and invisible, and how intangible forces, such as sound, pressure, and resonance, can be understood as spatial and structural phenomena.
Rather than illustrating sound, the work allows it to act as a generative system, revealing the instability and transience of form. This approach continues to inform my broader practice, particularly in relation to presence, absence, and the conditions through which experience is made perceptible.
