From the artist:

This piece is inspired by ,moving house from a busy area to a quiet area on the outskirts of Brighton . while walking my dog ,i realised how dead and boring the area was i now lived in ,as there was not a sound in the neighbourhood at night,after being in the centre of Brighton where there was traffic , music ,voices and life was 24-7  ,and found myself over time fearful of making noise  where i now lived .Using lettering in the centre of the piece ,using beads it reads --living without making a sound and mirrored underneath  -- and working out from there i tried to create noise visually .
