1000mods – Reach Out || Collaboration with artist Irini Gogua (“The Sound of Works”)

1000mods teamed up with Irini Gogua to create an instrumental piece inspired by her painting "Reach Out".

Irini Gogua, a Georgian–Greek artist, has collaborated with renowned composers and musicians from Greece and abroad to create “The Sound of Works”, an exhibition exploring the synesthesia of color and sound. Each artist offered an original musical composition inspired by one of Gogua’s visual works, forming a fascinating dialogue between the two arts.

The "REACH OUT" painting, created with oil on canvas (110 × 150 cm), and others from exhibition can be viewed in high resolution at https://goguairini.com/sculptures

The whole project explores how sound and color can connect so every artist involved created music inspired by a specific painting, and visitors could scan a QR code next to each artwork to hear the track that matched it. It was an immersive experience, both for the artists and the audience, and was warmly received by critics and visitors alike.

The instrumental piece by 1000mods is now available on all streaming platforms, and an experimental motion visualization in collaboration with the artist is available on our YouTube channel for you to enjoy.

We encourage everyone to experience this installation in person at museums and galleries where art and sound truly merge into one.

"I tend to fall.
I tend to dive.
I tend to sink.
I tend to cross into another dimension,
a different plane of my being.

Everything around me feels so cruelly foreign,
it might as well be hell.

I feel I do not belong here.

So I reach inward,
diving against the current of return.

I reach out
toward the bottom of myself."
