    Gold in Special Categories / Science / Technology

What if we could see sound? We would be surrounded by astonishing patterns shaped by acoustic waves. Through Cymatics, sound frequencies become visible as geometric forms on water. Developed under the Resonance project, the photographic series Mediterranean Plants explores the vibrational imprint of the botanical world by translating the bioelectrical variations of plants into images. The plant becomes an active interlocutor instead of a passive background. From this hidden flow, fluid geometries emerge, revealing a silent language that has accompanied Earth for millions of years.

Simone Arrigoni (Rome, 1973) is a classical pianist, Freediving world champion (26 World Records) and an awards-winning photographer (FIOF Italian Photography Ambassador in China 2017 & Underwater Photography Festival Ambassador) with more than 170 Awards in the most prestigious International Photo Contests, publications and worldwide exhibitions (China, Crimea, France, Greece, Italy, Japan, Singapore, UK, USA).
