Reception follows the performance by Zimoun

Zimoun is a sound and installation artist based in Switzerland. He often multiplies a single motorized component to haunting audio and visual effect. He has exhibited and performed extensively worldwide since 2000. His work for this exhibition creates a sound much like falling rain. The sculpture is abstract, the rain has no narrative referent, but we associate it with scenes of loss—looking back—in film genres such as noir and melodrama, as well as in lyrics of popular music. He is represented by Bitforms Gallery.
