2023, Artist's book
This work employs an exploratory, open-ended approach, it uses 6 sound clips from water-centric locations in Hong Kong as creative references. By observing different characters of the sound, such as its speed, duration, loudness, distance and rhythm, the work translates some familiar auditory experiences into unconventional visual and tactile representation.
The work aims to explore how sound can be accessed through different sensory experiences, and whether communities with varied understandings of sound and listening, can access these experiences.
The work attempts to create more equal ground among three communities: the visually-impaired, the hearing impaired, and everyone else in communities which are dependent upon different levels of sensory ability, respectively.
