RESONANCE

What if we could see sound? We would be immersed in amazing shapes drawn by sound waves in space. Thanks to Cymatics, we can go beyond the limits of our senses, and visualize the patterns created by an acoustic frequency on a fluid’s surface. This project is a tribute to the secret beauty of Nature by showing the fascinating shapes traced on water by natural objects’ sounds, which draw in front of the camera’s lens the invisible symphony of reality. Photography crosses new frontiers: it becomes a medium to live a particular sensory experience, through the representation of sound in the visual field. The invisible becomes image, and the image awakens imagination. For each subject, it was chosen the most emblematic shot, in which shape and colours recall the idea of the represented sound source. The photograph thus ends up arousing the perceptive imagination of the observer, making him visualize what he does not hear and hear what he does not see.
