140 Sounds

This piece came from a dream where I would see an orchestra's sounds individually coming towards me from the musicians on stage. I woke up and designed this piece to see if I could make it look anything like it did in my dream. It never really quite looks the same but I was very surprised by the way this series of works came out. They are inspiring to see, the same way an orchestra is inspiring to hear. The mixed-media piece is made up of 140 individual panels, each created with a computer numeric controlled router (CNC) out of a single piece of wood. Each panel represents a single auditory tone and may be hung at any orientation.
