Melanie Herbert is a Sydney-based composer and installation artist. This exhibition, presented in partnership with MONA as part of MONA FOMA 2014, is an immersive, multi-speaker work that couples sound with light to reshape the terrain of the gallery space. Delicate layers of noise and silence disperse, forming micro and macro sonic spaces that merge and bleed into each other to make a constantly shifting and expanding sound world.
Using field recordings and musical improvisations, Herbert’s compositions fuse intricate networks of space, sound, silence and time to create immersive musical sound-scapes.
