Cylindrical glass beads

With discerning, masterful use of color, Claire Kahn visualizes the behavior of sound through pattern and progression. Here, purely with cylindrical glass beads, she creates a piece where the eye is taken through a stimulating spectrum that arouses feeling of movement and alteration. As if visuallyillustrating fluctuating and progressingtonality,the maker begins with a bright white that then slowlysubsides to a soft gray. Immediately, the progression takes a faster turn into the deep assemblage of dark gray. Visceral brilliance takes hold in a captivating composition. If color were a pitch, imagine how the sound would fluctuate in the composition you see before your eyes.

This piece is part of Claire Kahn's mini series, Doppler;exploring the point where opposites attract, the artist contrives one of a kind pieces that visually communicate the natural phenomenas of sound (ie. The Doppler Effect)
