SOUND AND VISION – Song for Tamlyn by Doris Marten - Installation, pink

2023

About the Item

SOUND AND VISION – Song for Tamlyn is a unique oil on vinyl installation by German contemporary artist Doris Marten, dimensions are 65 × 65 cm (25.6 × 25.6 in). Every piece is 30 cm in diameter (11.8 in). The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity. This installation consists of 4 pieces. The way the various components of the installation are put together is an artistic statement; each piece was thoughtfully chosen by Doris Marten to establish a particular balance, so it cannot be easily changed. The artist must suggest a new composition if a piece is altered. She compares this to a piece of music, saying that while you can listen to sections of the entire composition, it becomes unrecognisable if the individual notes are mixed together. This artwork is part of the series Sound and Vision, the line remains the only motif of the compositions, but it is illustrated on a new medium which is none other than a vinyl disk. In painting on a turntable, the artist transformed these acoustic data carriers into visual aids: as if the musical pieces are replayed with a brush, in a sort of transformation of sound into image.  With the simple use of lines Doris Marten explores the perception of colours and their influence on each other. Line reveal colours individually and they bring to life the effect of one colour upon another. The artist has developed a thorough knowledge of colours which allows her to create optical illusions, impressions of movement and intense variations of light.
