Seeing is believing, but feeling is truth. \u2013 Thomas Fuller (1608 \u2013 1661)<\/em><\/p>\n Imagine a beautiful view of nature on a perfect Spring day without the sound of the rustling of leaves and chirping birds. How about a fiesta without laughter and festive music? If our memories are only tied to visual experiences and leave out what we hear, how much would actually be memorable?<\/p>\n The challenge of presenting visual art is its presumed limitation to one sense, sight, especially in a world where we are already inundated with imagery. However, every image potentially has a corresponding sound, unique to every individual, as it would be tied to personal experience and memory. Therefore, the ability to build a connection between the two senses elevates each visual experience into a personal one; the key is to train the mind to encourage visual experiences to spark the imagination and tap into the deep well of memory, which includes many sounds. This <\/p>\n
\nexhibition attempts to promote this correlation by focusing on artists who have investigated the potential of the fascinating links between seeing and hearing. When we imagine the sound of a picture or, likewise, when a sound inspires a visual memory, we get closer to feeling, and if we were to believe the 17th -century adage from Thomas Fuller, we also get closer to truth.<\/p>\n
