About the Artist
Artist Rachael Linton specializes in working with the resonance of precious metals and sound vibrations. She has innovatively transformed the concept of CYMATICS, which captures and solidifies sound wave vibrations, into physical paintings. Her pioneering technique preserves these sound waves as intricate wavelike patterns on art panels, allowing them to be displayed vertically on the wall.
Using digital tone generators, musical instruments, acoustic sonifiers, and the human voice, she harnesses sound vibrations to create paintings that ripple with geometric patterns, known as cymatics. Her abstract works, inspired by nature and cosmic themes, bridge the gap between science and art.
Rachael uses an intuitive approach to her painting, valuing improvisation, allowing an aspect of the unconscious and numinous forces of nature to influence her work. Drawing on her background in gold leaf gilding and traditional restoration techniques, she illuminates her fine art pieces with 24ct precious metal leaf, lustrous pigments, and genuine gold powder to play with reflective light, colour and the perception of the viewer.
