Zvuk tišine serija 6

Ideja / Opis rada

Zvuk tišine serija 6 - Zvuk se može čuti, ali ne i vidjeti ili dodirnuti. Želio sam stvoriti djelo koje se može vidjeti i dodirnuti, a koje predstavlja zvuk. Tako je nastao “Zvuk Tišine”, gdje možemo osjetiti i dodirnuti zvuk.

“Ove skulpture proizlaze iz vibracija zvuka. Kao umjetnik keramike želim omogućiti osobama s oštećenjem sluha da dodirivanjem osjete kako zvuk izgleda. Želim da osobe s oštećenjem vida mogu osjetiti rukama kako izgleda zvuk. Također mi se sviđa da ljudi poput mene mogu dodirnuti i razumjeti kako zvuk izgleda.”
