Medium: Sound, Drawing

"Sound Map (2020)" is a sound media project that seamlessly merges digital drawings and real-time ink sketches, transforming everyday sounds into a visual and auditory symphony. Each moment from the artist's daily life, such as the morning radio news, the rustling of newspaper pages, the hum of a hairdryer, and the gushing of a faucet, is meticulously captured through ink drawings in real-time.

Layered with precision, these drawings form a visual landscape reminiscent of traditional oriental paintings, imbued with the artist's personal auditory experiences. The convergence of various sounds is not only visually compelling but also undergoes a transformative process, with each sound edited and overlapped to create a unique audio composition.

This piece invites viewers to explore the artist's sonic world, where artificial and natural sounds coalesce to evoke distinct emotions. The meticulous focus on individual sounds, drawn and layered to resemble mountains, creates a harmonious blend reminiscent of nature's landscapes. The synchronized audio enhances the experience, offering a sensation akin to standing before a waterfall while immersed in the beauty of a real landscape. "Sound Map (2020)" stands as a multi-sensory testament to the power of sound and its ability to shape our perceptions of the world around us.
