Untitled (2026)
Hollow steel, planed pine wood, grated hand-soap shavings, transducer
10ft x 10ft x 1.6in
Untitled is an exploration of labour, identity and time. The frame, clad in shavings collected from grating bars of hand-soap, resonates at 1060Hz and at a moderate volume. This frequency is particularly harsh to the human ear, and therefore forces the audience to negotiate their position and time in front of the sculpture. It becomes easier to engage with the piece at a distance, forcing the audience to compromise attention to detail for comfort.

Fifty years after the original historic 1973 workshop installed by David Tudor and friends, a group of 13 sound artists learn about the piece through making, performing and discussing it. The rain gauge shares a physical space with a myriad of other resonating objects, creating a rainforest-esque soundscape.
