Through the use of sound and moving images, Irvin Pascal creates works that reflect upon ideas of beauty and the sublime. The animations act as a medium to generate philosophical inquiries into the human condition. Through the use of musical instruments, the artist constructs soundscapes that form a narrative around the progression of each piece. The nuances in tone and rhythmic pattern add to the palpable tension and harmony that the works convey. The ever-changing depictions bring forth a moment of contemplation within the mind, allowing diversion from the fixation of the self.
