String, motors and rubber balls (and a lot of white paint) is all it takes to turn this abandoned chemical tank into a sound installation!
Sound artist Zimoun turned this tank in Switzerland into a sound installation with around 300 rubber balls and DC motors. Completely inspired. The artist’s statement on the space:
“Using simple and functional components, Zimoun builds architecturally-minded platforms of sound. Exploring mechanical rhythm and flow in prepared systems, his installations incorporate commonplace industrial objects. In an obsessive display of simple and functional materials, these works articulate a tension between the orderly patterns of Modernism and the chaotic forces of life. Carrying an emotional depth, the acoustic hum of natural phenomena in Zimoun’s minimalist constructions effortlessly reverberates.”
