Hypothesis of Communication
Sculpture, sound installation
2018
A Hypothesis of Communication(2018) is a series of speculative apparatus of communication and empathy. It focuses on the mechanism of sound, not only physical but also linguistic, to explore of politics of hearing. Fictional instruments are created for producing, recording and perceiving sounds – from certain objects to ambience, noise, voice, and silence. The configurations allude to the acoustic organs of both animal and machine, while representing them as a biological and technological abstraction.
