Regionale 19 - "Sound Embodied" Exhibition
Music and fine arts have a long tradition of inspiring each other. The exhibition at HeK shows a selection of works dealing with the attributes of sound and studying the visualisation of acoustic experiences. The artists presented, experiment with the physical and sculptural characteristics of sound, for example creating generative compositions or arranging music for an imaginary future audience. Some use resonators to reveal the concealed sounds of objects and electric devices. Others employ sound as a conceptual guide to examine social media behaviour or to evaluate the production and staging of music events. Whether through robotic installations, augmented reality works, or synesthetic compositions – the artistic approaches enable us to broaden our sound horizons.
