Ebon Heath’s ‘Visual Noise’ sculptures are meant to reflect modern living, but they seem better than just regular mobiles.
The ‘Visual Noise’ sculptures are formed out of letters and words, formed together into mobiles that create cascades of jumbled text. The outcome is a very graphic and exciting sculpture.
‘Visual Noise’ by Ebon Heath can be seen here or on his website.
The structures are a physical representation of our language as object. This “visual noise” permeates all aspects of modern culture, especially urban living. From the signs, billboards, stores, and t-shirts that yell with type for attention as you walk down any high street. All the audio and verbal noise, from music we plug our ears with to the din of countless conversations, screams and whispers. With new media of texting, online, and transmitted technology there is even invisible noise silent to the eye surrounding us all. It is this cozy womb of information, data, or chorus of cacophony that my mobiles hope to represent as well as reveal. Making the invisible visible.
