Artist Statement:

Deepening Scenery is a 30-minute audiovisual performance using “component” music and imagery designed to be mixed live, and incorporating a balance between the pre-designed and the accidental. Overlap utilize systematic obscuration, sound/image disparity, and representations of landscape juxtaposed with a stream of manmade objects (components from everyday items), which moves from flowing abstraction to split second interventions. An endless conveyer of the beautiful yet unknown, accompanied by a melodic minimalist soundtrack. In a world of ubiquitous, immediately interpretable imagery and information, perhaps a crucial purpose for abstraction is a kind of universal yet personal sensory mapping. Curated by Philippe Pasquier and Vicki Moulder.
