Projects Space - Sarah Tracton: Sound is Illuminated

Linden New Art is proud to present Sound is Illuminated, the latest body of handcrafted porcelain lightworks by local artist and designer Sarah Tracton.

Floating weightlessly throughout the space, the gentle glow of Tracton’s pendant lights distil the velvety warmth of dusk, disrupting the cool container of the gallery’s white cube. Closer inspection reveals gilded fissures that shatter the porcelain into mosaics of organic shapes, its form the beautiful result of an artful Japanese technique employed by Tracton known as kintsugi, in which ceramic shards broken during the firing process are repaired with gold-leaf sheets. The pendants are powered and suspended by minimalistic frame structures of near-invisible slimline wires, thus eliminating visible cables and creating a mysterious buoyancy.

Exhibition Dates: 2 May - 28 May
