A-Noise

This piece translates acoustic memory into a visual field: dense vertical and horizontal marks function like frozen soundwaves or eroded architectural silhouettes. The work explores the tension between presence and absence — how a once-vivid signal becomes fragmented by time, interference and repetition. Layered lithographic impressions, scratching and selective smudging create depth and texture, suggesting both a mechanical imprint and human touch. The muted palette and worn paper-like ground reference archival documents, evoking nostalgia and the idea that perception itself is a palimpsest where traces remain beneath new layers. Overall, the image invites the viewer to listen with their eyes and consider how memory, noise and silence shape meaning.
