Forest of sound a CH2O’s project by Chiara Zaccagnini is a play between nature and urbanization. That reimagines the natural world through the lens of digital disruption.

This series merges generative art with sound by KWERK to create abstracted forest glitches. Fragmented by the noise of human activity.

These abstract visions are generated by scratchy rhythms, allude to the harsh intrusions of traffic and urban noise slicing through our natural environment.

Doug Haywood | Bridge strike 443 (Nov-Jan 25)

Rage Stage

Size: 2.6m x 2.6m 
Ink on paper, acrylic paint, gold and silver leaf, spray paint

Haywood’s ‘Bridge Strike 443’ playfully highlights the often overlooked details, collectively made by others an adapted image, originally sourced from tagged bridge identification sign found nearby; a detail selected by Doug yet created by someone else for another purpose and subsequently added to by others anonymously. This encapsulates the discourse and interaction between authority, pedestrians, and residents that is uniquely specific to its location. Seen as anonymously collaborative abstract expressionism, the image is highlighted, developed, and displaced to be presented in a new form, further contributing to the dialogue contained within its own space.
