Subterranean Song

51 cm x 48 cm x 12 cm - Polymer clay, miniature speaker

This sculpture aims to express a sense of mystery created by the complexity of the underground world. The small pipe system made of flesh-colored polymer clay metaphorically depicts the underground as a living body or system. The complexity of the underground is visually expressed through the juxtaposition of organic roots with industrial pipes, while the soundtrack playing from inside conveys it through audio by incorporating sounds such as dripping water, a subway train and heartbeats.
