Listening: Transmit, Receive, Connect

Connect is Part 3of the 3-Part Installation

Connect, the final part of the installation, sprawls across the walls and is made of fragmented, deteriorated copper plates, plastic tubes and copper shards. Embodying the essence of the reiterative printmaking process, Connect unconventionally displays the plates used to make the prints. Thin plastic tubes (reminiscent of materials used in hearing aids), that contain thousands of tiny hand-cut copper shards and the residue of the degraded plates, connect the varied plates. Twisting like the once pneumonic tubes that passed messages from one place to another and casting shadows that mimic sentences or cityscapes, these tubes suggest the intricate ways language, sound and utterances morph their way to interpretation and meaning.
