The Lab at Compound is a site for artistic experimentation. It is a place for art to interface directly with the public with the intention of supporting artists in realizing innovative ideas according to their vision. Compound is invested in creating intimate encounters between new art and new audiences.

Chromosonic - Field Study is an experimental light and sound installation, a study for a larger work, composed of repeated translucent scrims laid out in a matrix to create a series of rooms and interstitial spaces. Each of the four rooms (nodes) in this multi-layered experiential environment is activated by a single source of light and sound at any given time using sound waves in real-time.

Chaos to Cosmos focuses on the works of artists addressing nature and beauty, working on the creation of visual systems, order and iconography to address the mysteries of the universe. It is often through the lens of art that enigmas and phenomenon of the cosmos are explored. Our collaborating artists play with color, light, perception, mystery, movement and material to approach universal ideas.
