Taylah Hasaballah
Signal to Noise
Signal to Noise presents the first public showing of Taylah Hasaballah’s multi-year investigation into entropy, or energy drain. Paintings are made with metals, salts, powder pigments and acids to evoke hallucinogenic visions, hinting at images that never quite come into focus. The series forms an archive of what Walter Benjamin called ‘irresistible decay’, a distant echo produced through gradual and irrevocable deterioration to a time where signal no longer occurs.
