Sleep from VegaAltair on Vimeo.

Statement:

All beings sleep. Rest for most is an afterthought, not a focal point of life, despite it being a crucial aspect. The human brain forces us to eventually stop and reset the body, the video in turn is a gentle command to help guide slumber. The audio acts as a manifestation of the human consciousness. The setting of listening to the sound via headphones, emphasizes the isolation needed for relaxation despite being in a crowd.

Something Real, Relief Print, 90"x 52"x 60" 2017

Something Real from VegaAltair on Vimeo.

Statement:

The idea of translating sound and experience 

          into physical marks in the world. 

The act of taking the surround sound 

          and recreating a surrounding space. 

The ephemeral nature of music 

          juxtaposed with the permanence of wood. 

The replay of a song or album 

         paired with the reproducibility of a print. 

Sound as substance.
