In one week, The Mattress Factory will have a new exhibition!
Sound and visual artist, Marc Vilanova, talks about his upcoming exhibition at the Factory. The exhibition features inaudible sound, known as infrasound. Marc recorded underground wells around the Pennsylvania area using geophones, microphones designed to capture seismic activity. His exhibition features 60 speakers projecting the sound into the space and vibrating small threads. It is all part of his vision to have the audience experience sound we cannot hear.
Marc talks about his work as a former musician turned art installation artist, and why he decided to pursue this line of work. He also talks about his previous studies as a saxophonist, and his upcoming travels across the world as he showcases his work.
He hopes people come and experience this meditative and mesmerizing work.
It's an exhibition designed for Pittsburgh!
You can see Marc's upcoming exhibition on March 28th with an opening reception from 6 pm to 8 pm. See the exhibition and meet Marc!
The exhibition will be on display until March 2026.
