Created and printed by Sohrab Hura to accompany his exhibition of the same title, A Proposition for Departure focuses on the relationship between light and sound, and reads as an instructional guide for the artist, dictating the sound extractions that Hura would create from a selection of his photographs.
“The sound notation book A PROPOSITION FOR DEPARTURE is a blueprint of my experiments with the relationship between images and sound. It forms an emotional map that I began to draw as an experiment, to work with an online synthesizer that helped me scan points within the images and turn the whiter points into higher frequencies of sound at the octaves and in scales that I decided on."
"While I desired for the freedom to pull away from the visible and tangible starting form of images as we saw and acknowledged them, it remained important to me that the logic in the final composition created remained anchored in the core meaning and reason why those images were created in the first place.”
