Room With a View.
My work was featured in the Up North Arts (UNA) exhibition 'Room with a view' in the Storey Gallery, Lancaster. This was a great opportunity to see my work in an exhibition space and was helpful when looking at installation of my work. I decided to have my work with headphone and a blindfold/eye mask to give the listener a personal and intimate experience in which listening was the sense which was of most importance. The work being atmospherically charged intends to transport a person to a different place. The work starts of being harmonic but soon descends into something creepily sonorous. I had some good comments and the theme seemed to be understood.
Artist Statement for exhibition.
Andrew’s fine art practice consists of soundscape studies which focuses in on the Anthropophony; a subdivision of the Anthropocene. The Anthropocene is a proposed epoch which looks at human interactions and interventions within environments; by editing sounds that he records he aims to observe and present sound works which exudes human interruptions within the natural world.
