Sound Narratives
Sound Narratives as seen at the Donna Seager Gallery
Sand sprinkled on a metal plate and vibrated with sound created predictable patterns which were captured in handmade paper. The visual beauty of the geometric patterns portraying the responsiveness of matter to sound, illuminate the poetic and philosophical principles of nature. The colorful pulp painting techniques are indicative of the seven chakra colors (red, orange, yellow, blue, purple and white).
Chakra is a Sanskrit word that translates as "wheel" or "turning"...a concept referring to wheel-like vortices which, according to traditional Indian medicine, are believed to exist in the surface of the etheric double of man. (Wikipedia)
