Christian Marclay + Shelley Hirsch
In Zoom Zoom (2007 – 2018), Christian Marclay investigates our relationship with secondary sound – the noises we see but never hear – with these snapshot photographs of onomatopoeias found primarily on advertising, signs and product packaging. During a performance with vocalist Shelley Hirsch, for whom this piece was created, Marclay selects and projects images to trigger her vocal improvisation and presents her with new images in an ongoing call and response.
