Artist Statement:
Bipolar is a group of binaural sensory studies. Diptychs of static images, such as ocean and grassland or wilderness and city, are paired with split channel headphone audio. Visually the two remain distinct. Listening to the corresponding audio, the sounds blend together as the dissonance becomes harmonic.
