MV Carbon (NY) is an interdisciplinary artist working at the intersection of sound, sculpture, and experimental instrument design. Her practice explores how sound, technology, and material form shape perception, spatial experience, and collective listening.

Working with bronze, wood, clay, found objects, custom electronics, and sound synthesis, Carbon creates sculptural instruments and responsive systems that generate sound through interaction. These works function as both instruments and environments, where gesture, resonance, and feedback produce evolving sonic structures.

Her process draws on speculative synthesis, analog recording techniques, and real-time frequency manipulation. Through repetition, decay, and feedback, she investigates sound as a temporal and spatial phenomenon, revealing shifting relationships between presence, memory, and emergence.

Carbon’s sculptural works operate as playable systems, integrating circuits, sensors, voice, and amplification to produce unexpected sonic logics through interaction and saturation. Across installations and performances, she treats space as a responsive field shaped by sound, movement, and technological mediation.

Her work engages communication, interference, and perception, exploring how human and non-human systems co-produce experience through sound and material exchange.
