"Art is a distinct form of human communication. Art interprets experience, sensation, and feelings. An artistic work translates our mental images and allows other people to understand what we feel; art conveys our happiness, sadness, hopes, doubts, anxieties, fears, desires, and ineffable longings."

"I made a lot of different experiments with tapes at that time, until I finally realized around 1995, that sound is an interesting subject for me. Ever since then sound got more and more integrated into my art works, musically as well as physically."

Art

Alva Noto
"When I define polarities in my work, I actually create the space between things. I point to the question I am actually interested in, without naming it."

Work

Quote_1.png
Alva Noto
"It is important for me that a certain depth and variety of both exist next to each other. I am very careful not to sacrifice the one for the other."

Sacrifice

Alva Noto
"You cannot always make such big exhibitions, because they consume too much time and energy."

Time

Quote_1.png
Alva Noto
"I usually create sounds and have different generators running over it. You know you can open a word-file as a picture or the other way round. I do the same with sounds."

Creativity

Quote_1.png
Alva Noto
"The subject of my work has a lot to do with general, artistic matters, questions like: What is creativity? Where do we come from? What are our motors? What is coincidence? What is logic?"

Work

Alva Noto
"I try to keep a balance between conceptional or intellectual comprehension and emotional understanding."

Balance

Quote_1.png
Alva Noto
"One often thinks that using 2 different things like visual and sound lead to 2 different conclusions - to a different content - but in in my case it is all one."

Content

Quote_1.png
Alva Noto
"I always try hard to arrange all media in a way so that it expresses what I want - this is not limited to one medium alone and varies from case to case."

Media

Alva Noto
"Starting off, all options are always open, but as soon as you choose something, you inevitably limit yourself. If you go for B, A is out."
