Taking Soundings at Hayward Touring/ John Hansard Gallery

Ground Level 
Hayward Touring Curatorial Open II, John Hansard Gallery
29 June – 21 August 2010

This exhibition brings together international artists who perform their own personal forms of cartography in their practice. The resulting works suggest maps and surveys, but rather than portraying a singular worldview they put forward idiosyncratic readings of place, drawing from the shared landscapes of language, peoples and signs as well as geography. Curated by Kit Hammonds, winner of the 2010 Curatorial Open.

Review in WIRE

The Sonic Acts XIII Festival on The Poetics of Space, was reviewed in the May issue of Wire Magazine by Rhama Khazam. She singled out Fishing for Sound in the concerts and performance section of the festival:

“Yolande Harris’s Fishing for Sound brilliantly exploited sound’s capacity to conjure up a sense of place. Associating underwater sounds with sounds used to treat stress disorder and sonified data from satellites, it connected outer space with mental and underwater spaces, inviting listeners to think back on their own experiences of such envrionments and their sounds.”

“Resonator is a procedural performance-workshop and idea exchange which investigates diverse artistic, materialist and spiritualist practices that converge around the importance of vibration as a means of making sense of the universe.”
