The process
Interview with plastic artist Amadeo Azar for Dot Fiftyone Gallery. The sound design of this project is composed by linking three sound spaces.
In the first scenario we have the real world, with its physical laws and its natural reverberations. If we are in a recording studio or in a workshop, it sounds like that, veridical.
In a second place we have a scenario more linked to the introspective, in which sounds will sound coming from the mind of the protagonist, and these will be crossed by his subjectivity, the sounds may be strange and may not respond to what one calls reality, We could say that they lose their nature.
Finally we find a mixed place, that is, where these two worlds coexist, the real and the “imaginary”. This turns out to be, at least for me, the most interesting, because when the nature of the sounds is combined, the plot becomes more complex and leads the viewer to link with the audiovisual narrative in a more unconscious way and leads them to doubt, makes them question a reality, invites you to think, and opens the game of non-literal interpretation of things. These scenarios make up the audiovisual, they accompany and tell the story.
