“A PICTURE”
This is a work that combines two different disciplines, one visual and one auditory. By combining the photographs of several visual artists, it is mixed through a conductive thread, so that in this conjunction it achieves the perfect union of two aspects of art, photography and sound.
The methodology used to realize this work was to ask each guest artist for a photograph, allowing absolute freedom in its composition. At the same time the guests were asked to create an ambient sound recording from the place in which the picture was taken, using any medium they had on hand (cell phones, recorders, cameras, etc.)
Then each of those recordings was processed using different techniques. They were passed through tapes, processed with pedals, digitally processed on iPad, looped on tape, even sound degradation was used.
