ZIMOUN:
Sculpting Sound

October 11, 2011 - February 19, 2012 

Zimoun

The Swiss artist Zimoun blends elements of sound, sculpture, mechanics, and engineering into unique sensory experiences redefining traditional notions of sculpture and sonic performance. The sound sculptures and installations of Zimoun are graceful, mechanized works of structural simplicity in an industrial-like setting that reveals a complex and intricate relationships and interplay between the “artificial” and the “organic.”

Zimoun creates sound pieces from basic components, often using multiples of the same prepared mechanical elements to examine the creation and degeneration of patterns.  This will be the first showing of Zimoun’s work in Florida and one of the few showings of his work in the United States.
