pink moon
GREGORY BESON COLLABORATIONDEAR FRIEND BOOKS
pink moon is an ellipsis at the end of a run-on sentence.
It began as translations of sound waves visualized through suminagashi and video, then grew to include a series of riso prints and stools.
Suminagashi is the Japanese form of marbling in which sumi ink floats on the surface of water and is gently transferred onto paper. The process is inherently fluid in both practice and form. When activated with sonic vibrations, what emerges are silent topographies of sound.

The projection on the window is a quiet companion to the sound prints. In this piece, Faraday waves dance through a fluid medium, with colors and waveforms slowly changing over time.
The prints capture a moment in time, while the video draws out a slow choreography.
In this show, Gregory Beson and I take a humble step toward manifesting the intersections of our separate disciplines through the dynamic range of resolved works alongside gestural and playful ones. We invite reorientation in an effort to defy fixity.
