Sound-absorbing paintings
Functional art.
Glass, concrete, plaster and poured floors send sound straight back. You hear it as reverberation: the room sounds hollow and conversation takes effort. Behind a sound-permeable painted surface sits roughly four centimetres of absorbing material, taking in part of that sound instead of returning it. Not a technical panel on the wall, but a painting.

A series
Arnhemse Iconen
The city in blue and white: the Eusebius, the John Frost bridge, the Rembrandt Theatre. Drawn on a sound-absorbing surface, so they do the same thing in a room as the planets do.

The artist
Dorota Roszkowska
Polish by birth, working in Arnhem. The studio is in De Transformatie: where the painting is done, the gold-coloured metal leaf laid, and the question of what quiets a room worked out.
