Ten x Ten is a collaboration between 10 visual artists and 10 composers that investigates the relationship between color and sound. Through exploring the underlying concepts of synesthesia, both academically and intuitively, artists and composers work together to produce a single two-part artwork: a fine art screenprint and a composition for small ensemble. This work represents the direct dialogue between the artists and the artforms.
Each visual artist has created one 10 inch by 10 inch scale print, published by Spudnik Press Cooperative. Each composer wrote a piece performed and recorded by Palomar Ensemble that has been pressed onto 12” vinyl.
The final package will be a suite of 10 prints and a record with 10 corresponding compositions and will be released, presented and performed on Saturday, November 16, 2013 at the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art.
