Skoltz_Kolgen Hyalin installation

AS IN ALL SKOLTZ_KOLGEN WORKS, HYALIN PROBES THE POROUS DIVISIONS BETWEEN SOUND AND IMAGE.

HERE THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE WORK BEGINS WITH THE SIMPLEST EXPRESSION OF SOUND. ITS ESSENCE. LITERALLY, A GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION: A SPECTRUM OF ARCHES AND CURVES DRAWN BY SOUND WAVES.

BUT THIS BASIC SOUND IS QUICKLY SUBLIMATED, FILTERED AND FILTERED AGAIN. AND FILTERS ARE WHAT MAKE HYALIN A SINGULAR WORK OF ART; THEY ARE MACROPHOTOGRAPHS (EXTREME CLOSE-UPS) OF GLASS SURFACES, CONSTELLATED BY IMPURITIES.

HYBRID SOFTWARE BRINGS SOUND AND IMAGE TOGETHER: THE MACROPHOTOGRAPHS ARE SUPERIMPOSED ON THE CURVED GRAPHICAL DRAWING OF SOUND WAVES. BE THEY SIMPLE OR COMPLEX, THE SOUND WAVES UNFOLD WITH THE DENSITY OF THE IMAGE: WHERE THE IMAGE IS MORE TRANSLUCENT, SOUND IS PERCEPTIBLY ALTERED; WHERE THE IMAGE IS MORE OPAQUE, SOUND STRUGGLES TO BREAK FREE; RESTRAINED BY ITS IMPENETRABILITY. SOUND WAVES BECOME RESIDUE.

THE OPTICAL IRREGULARITIES, IMPURITIES, VOIDS AND PROJECTIONS OF THE MACROPHOTOGRAPHS ALSO ACT PHYSICALLY AS THE AREAS OF IMPURE NOISE CARVE OUT THE TOPOGRAPHY IN THE HYALIN SOUNDTRACK. SOUND AND IMAGE ARE SOLDERED INTO A NEW FORM: COMPOSITE SOUND.

IN SUM, THE ENTIRE ARCHITECTURE OF HYALIN RELIES ON A MULTI-LAYERED ASSEMBLAGE OF SOUNDS. HYALIN IS THE FRUIT OF TECHNICAL AND ALCHEMICAL EXPLORATION IN WHICH SOUND SPRINGS FORTH FROM THE TRANSLUCENT BODY OF IMAGE-FILTERS EACH TIME IT IS DISTILLED, EACH TIME IT TRANSCENDS ITS MEDIUM.
