songs to the universe

2023, kinetic installation, ropes, electrical motors, speed controllers, ultraviolet lights, PS artspace

Commissioned by the Fremantle Biennale for Signals 2023


Driven by motors rotating at different speeds, the ropes generate travelling waves, standing waves and shifting harmonic forms. Under ultraviolet light, fluorescent pigments transform them into luminous forms, each with its own distinct behaviour, that hover, pulse and reconfigure in space.
