Additional Information
One of the artworks chosen as Tate Modern’s 25th anniversary highlights, Meireles’ large-scale installation is a circular tower made up of hundreds of second-hand analogue radios, tuned to different radio stations and each playing at minimum volume. This quiet cacophony of competing sounds produced what the artist calls ‘a tower of incomprehension’. An image of part of the tower is printed at the chest on the black cotton T-shirt, with the artwork title, credit line, and Tate’s iconic dot logo printed underneath.
