ICA Miami and Gallery Diet invite ICA NEXT and above members to What Color is Sound? with Nathlie Provosty and Alina Tenser.
What does red sound like? What does colorful sound like? What is a pastel sound? Is there a sound which approaches the visual spectrum? Or that literally becomes visual?
Provosty and Tenser invite you to further explore this idea with them at Gallery Diet within their exhibition, Ultraviolet. Members will listen to a series of recordings, songs and sounds chosen by the artists and discuss the impact of each with the artists and amongst the group.
