Instructor: Nelly Kate
What happens when sound becomes visible? Explore this question with suminagashi and cymatics. This process blends an ancient Japanese artform with a scientific phenomenon, to visualize sound. In this session, participants will create prints by activating sumi ink and water with sonic vibration. All materials are provided. No experience required.
Note: While this class is blocked for 2 hours, participants are welcome to continue experimenting with this process and wrapping up their project until 9PM.
Nelly Kate (she/her) is a studio artist with an expanded practice in sound, expressing its material power through tones, tapes, water, wood, metal, and fiber. Her work takes the form of installation, performance, and print. Over the past decade, Nelly has experienced fluctuations between late-deafness and hearing. This informs her creative research and insistence upon slowness, the awkwardness of inclusion, collaboration, and repetition. Which is to say, she centers disability-led perspectives and projects while convincing more folks to learn sign language with her.
