Sculpture: The Object by Dhruva Mistry
Soundscape: The Sentinel by Dan Davies
***
The Sentinel
All of the sounds heard in this piece are taken from The Object’s location, and from drumming directly on the artwork itself. Passersby, traffic and construction noise make up the ambient noise, looped into layered rhythms. Named for the short story by Arthur C. Clarke (which later inspired the screenplay for 2001: A Space Odyssey), The Sentinel imagines The Object as a mysterious monolith. With no discernible entrance or exit, the artist with tongue firmly in cheek, tries to communicate from the outside with whatever might be within.
