Sound Made Visible at Athenaeum | San Diego News

Step into sound made visible at the Athenaeum Art Center’s new exhibit “Ess Whiteley: listening materials,” where sonic sculptures transform space into an immersive, vibrating experience. Artist Ess Whiteley turns audio into tangible art—ping-pong balls bounce, rocks hum like insects—as speakers pulse with frequencies that create secondary sounds unique to each listener. It’s a mesmerizing exploration of sound’s physicality, revealing how invisible vibrations become visible through material interaction. This isn’t just hearing—it’s seeing and feeling sound come alive. Running through October 17th, it redefines what art can be.
