Icon Gallery has opened at 476 River Valley Road, opposite Valley Point & Fraser Suites.

In this respect they are opening with an exhibition of Soundwaves  by UK artist Tim Wakefield. Tim Wakefield creates dazzling sound artworks of iconic songs for his company Soundwaves Art. Using audio technology, Tim captures the digital beat of a musical track as a visual recording an energetic, multi-coloured image totally unique to the song. He listens to the music, the lyrics and the tempo of before capturing the song as  a "static" soundwave.

Manipulated and recoloured, each one is transferred in vibrant, startling glory to a large canvas. Each artwork is hand signed by the musicians and the collection features some of the greatest songs and artists of all time including Joy Division, The Killers , Eric Clapton , Coldplay, George Michael , Sir Paul McCartney, Depeche Mode, Queen, Abba, The Bee Gees, Nick Mason , Snow Patrol, The Cure, Stereophonics & Pink Floyd.

Each soundwave is a limited-edition from only two of each print up to an edition of 50. His first collection was created to help fundraising efforts for Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy, which is the UK’s largest specialist music therapy charity.
