Cymatics

Exploring the Intersection Between Art and the Mysterious Forces of Nature: The Red and Yellows Harmony Series.
The Harmony in Red and Yellows series is an artistic exploration into the captivating realm of cymatics, the study of how sound waves and vibrations can shape and influence the physical world. This series, consisting of 4 works, is inspired by the frequencies of musical compositions by Debussy and Wagner played on the cello. The main inspiration behind these artworks is to delve into the intersection between art and the unpredictable phenomena of nature, using cymatics as a tool for investigation and representatio.

Cymatics is the study of sound and vibration made visible. The term was coined by Swiss physician Hans Jenny (1904-1972). It’s basically a way to see sound.
Cymatic is a series of four works made through Sound vibrations applied directly to the canvas when the paint is still fresh, generating microuniverses within the surface of the work.
The series of works used the sound of the work “The Girl with the Flaxen Hair” by Claude Debussy and includes five paintings on 40″ X 60″ canvases

At the heart of this series lies the concept of harmony, both in terms of the harmonious frequencies of the musical compositions and the harmonious relationship between art and nature. By studying and depicting the ways in which sound waves can create intricate patterns and shapes, The Reds and Yellows series seeks to highlight the interconnectedness and unity of all things.
Each piece in this series is a unique expression of the relationship between art and nature, showcasing the beauty and complexity of this connection. Through the use of vibrant yellows and abstract forms, these works capture the essence of cymatics and the transformative power of sound.
As you delve into The Red and Yellow Harmony series, you will be transported to a world where art and nature intersect, creating a harmonious balance of form and function. These artworks invite you to consider the ways in which sound and vibration shape our world, and to reflect on the interconnectedness of all things.

More about Cymatics

Cymatics is the study of how sound waves and vibrations can shape and influence the physical world. It is a fascinating field that has captured the attention of scientists, artists, and philosophers for centuries, with the ancient Greeks being some of the first to explore the relationship between sound and form.
The term “cymatics” itself was coined by Swiss medical doctor and natural scientist Hans Jenny in the 1960s, but the principles behind it have been studied and observed for much longer. Jenny conducted a series of experiments in which he placed various substances, such as sand, water, and powders, on metal plates and exposed them to different frequencies of sound. The resulting patterns and shapes that were created were both beautiful and complex, and demonstrated the incredible ways in which sound waves can influence the physical world.
Today, cymatics is used in a variety of fields, from music and art to medicine and engineering. In music, for example, cymatics can be used to understand the ways in which different frequencies and vibrations affect the human body and mind. In art, it has inspired a whole movement of artists who use sound waves to create intricate and beautiful patterns and shapes. And in medicine, it is being explored as a potential therapy for a variety of conditions, such as tinnitus and chronic pain.
But cymatics is not just about the practical applications. It is also a field that invites us to consider the interconnectedness and unity of all things, and the role that sound and vibration play in shaping our world. It encourages us to look beyond the surface and see the hidden patterns and forces at work, and to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the universe.
So next time you hear a beautiful piece of music, or observe the patterns created by the ripples on a pond, take a moment to consider the ways in which sound and vibration are shaping and influencing the world around us.

Cymatics in Natural World

Cymatics can be found in many natural phenomena, as sound waves and vibrations are present everywhere in the world around us. Some examples of where cymatics can be observed in nature include:
✔️-The patterns created by ripples on a pond or the waves on the ocean.
✔️-The patterns created by sand or other granular substances when exposed to sound waves.
✔️-The shapes and patterns formed by fluid dynamics, such as the flow of water or the movement of gases.
✔️-The shapes and patterns created by the movement of particles in a solid, such as the way a crystal grows or the way grains of sand arrange themselves.
✔️-The patterns created by sound waves traveling through different materials, such as the way sound waves propagate through air, water, or solids.
✔️-The patterns created by sound waves interacting with structures, such as the way sound waves bounce off of walls or the way they are absorbed by different materials.
Overall, cymatics can be found wherever sound waves and vibrations are present, which is virtually everywhere in the natural world.

Red and Yellows Armony is inspired by the frequencies of musical compositions by Debussy and Wagmer played on the cello.
