Ewa and Jacek Doroszenko’s audiovisual project consists of video works, large-format graphic installations and a sound installation. The visual form of the works presented results directly from the sound sphere. Revealing the acoustic space of reality, the duo experiments with new technologies, relevant to the modern digital age. The graphic installations illustrate the path that sound material travels in the process of music production, especially electronic music: recording, reproduction, deconstruction, frequency cutting, working with the spectrum, compression, looping and distortion. The tangle of black and white, synthetic motifs resembles layers of music, rhythmically intertwining soundtracks. The artists focus on harmony, form and rhythm. Translating the sound composition into a different sensory experience, Ewa and Jacek Doroszenko “freeze” the sound during its journey through time and space.
