Zoë Gingell, director of Cardiff MADE gallery commissioned me to write and record original sound art for her Creative Wales award piece, “Walls”. We have made a multi-sensory collaborative installation using original material and digitised tapes of personal archive recordings from Zoë’s family. The HD audio features 60-70 minute quadrophonic looped drones and atmospheric recordings alongside sound bites triggered by motion sensors. This is installed alongside Zoë’s original physical/visual work featuring transparent bricks and projected video.
A highly emotional and personal piece that has taken a lot of effort and experimentation to conceive. This was the first commission I have done entirely on a remote basis.
You can sample a clip of the audio here:
The installation opens at Cardiff MADE gallery on Monday 13th of February. For gallery information, check out their Facebook page:
