Mute and Bright

Stuart Green and Rob Muir (sound artist) in collaboration with Dave Primmer

Title: Mute and Bright

Artist/s: Stuart Green and Rob Muir (sound artist) in collaboration with Dave Primmer

Year: 2008

Category: Sculpture

Site: Victoria Park Station

Location Details: Victoria Park Station Platform

Description:

The work consists of two major objects, a large self-patinating steel speaker-bell and a smaller, similarly-shaped speaker in stainless steel. The two objects are linked by an interactive audio program developed by visually-impaired sound artist Rob Muir, referencing the important link the station has with patrons of the nearby Association for the Blind.

Artist/s Statement:

The artworks offer a visual solidity while producing timed and interactive sampling and replaying of altered sounds. They create an ever-changing soundscape that can be both heard and felt.
