at the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza
Known for his experimental approach to music, Atoui amplifies the acoustic properties of bronze, textile, stone, ceramic, and other materials. The installation includes digital and analog instruments which the artist designed to perform the soundscape that can be heard throughout the exhibition. Tools like lasers, optical lenses, and tape loopers read sounds embedded in textiles, rocks, jewelry, and pottery. These objects vibrate, scrape surfaces, or move mechanically to rewrite this constantly mutating composition.
