'yes/no' is made up of two aluminium sculptures that have been conceived via wave forms of the spoken words 'yes' and 'no'. displayed on rubber mounting, the two objects attempt to materialize
the sculptural characteristics of sound when moving through space into a respective visual effigy. the semantic content of the sculptures gives answers to unasked questions, opening up a wide range of interpretation and association. 'yes/no' could also be perceived as a special portrait of performance artist laurie anderson, who originally spoke the two words that are solidified here.
100 x 15 x 15cm each.
