‘A Ripple and an Echo’ by artist Lucreccia Quintanilla seeks to broadcast the hidden sounds that are present in the world we live in, those we do not hear, obscured by the noise around us. Four conch shell-like sculptures implanted with mobile phones act as speakers to amplify Quintanilla’s sound compositions; recordings of the natural and human world, becoming further intensified by their placement within the gallery space. ‘These works must be approached with a spirit of exploration and openness,’ suggests curator Juliette Hanson.
