The term \u201csound art\u201d is perhaps inadequate for these five pieces, enacting as they do a restrictive or complicated relationship with noise and its production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cVacuum\u201d of the show\u2019s title comes from the eponymous work (2011) by Han in the second room. A single speaker, facing upwards, is encased closely inside a bell jar. Attached is a motor running a vacuum, which unsparingly sucks the sound away in what is a great metaphor for situations in which the clear expression of something is frustrated and its sentiment lost \u2014 pulled, literally, from its speaker. In the first room of the exhibition, a further two works \u2014 \u201cHidden Words\u201d (2010) and \u201cSpeeches\u201d (2011), show microphones dipped in plaster or wrapped as if in a chrysalis, this time blocking the path of sound by the intervention of their materials. Theirs is an aura not only of containment from the outside, but also of inhibition \u2013 the physical manifestation of impediments from within. Finally, there is the sculpture \u201cStone\u201d (2010), in which a microphone \u2013 its cord rendered rigid and sticking up into space \u2013 meets a piece of rock with expectant, awkward proximity and \u201cPiano e Forte\u201d (2011), for which small stones (mounted on the ends of wooden poles, to be pressed by foot) are set up to hit pick-axe and shovel heads in an ungainly display of musicality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In sum, a brief but potent performance of sensations made concrete through art \u2014 works which speak loudly, even as they complicate the audible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cSunset Vacuum Plug,\u201d&nbsp;group exhibit &hellip;
