Is it a sound? Is it a rhythm? Is it a texture? Is it a word? Is it a context? Is it me?
I work with listening as an intangible, intersubjective and transformative activity that has a potential to form the listener. I explore the ways in which we are embedded in socio-political structures, especially with a focus on gender, power relations and the environment, and the ways in which they intersect. By creating and nurturing spaces and situations where listening can take place, I explore relationships and allow the listener to become aware of their own role in the soundscape.
I work at the intersection of sound art, artistic research, social engagement and activism. I produce works in a multitude of formats, from installations and performance art, to recordings, concerts, writing and workshops. Furthermore, I work as musician with Aquasonic by Between Music, and as sound designer, artistic consultant, with studio and live audio, and as exhibition technician for other artists.
