The Subterranean Voice series depicts the sounds of a changing planet due to climate change. Each piece contains a subterranean sound file (recorded by the artist onsite) coupled with a painting. The paintings were made while listening to the underground and subsurface sounds associated with them. The patterns and textures of the subterranean sounds were particularly influential in determining the movement, the color choices and the structure of the paintings.
