About China Blue

China Blue
China Blue

China Blue is an internationally exhibiting and award winning, sound-based visual artist. Her work is driven by the fundamental principal that sound is energy made physical.

She is known for her discovery of the voice of the Eiffel Tower and for NASA the sounds in Saturn’s rings. Over the past two plus decades she has researched the acoustics in NASA’s Vertical Gun’s chamber whose projectiles shoot at Mach-15 and created work based on the sounds produced by our brains. Her current project is inspired by Saturn’s acoustics. From these sonic events she makes installations, environments, paintings and soundwalks.

She has been an Adviser to Rhode Island Congressman Langevin’s Committee for Art & Culture and the Rhode Island State’s Art and Health Committee as well as the Founder and Executive Director of The Engine Institute.
