‘Allotment Garden Soundscape, Blended, Remixed and Distorted’

Graphite on Paper

Approx 70cms diameter

2023

Drawn live within the National Justice Museum, Nottingham, during a performance workshop with musician and producer Kamal Joory for the Green Hustle Festival. Kamal live mixed a soundscape which I’d created (of an Allotment Garden, see works below) I responded to this mix live in front an audience of workshop participants.

These time-based drawings explore ‘Sense of Place’, focusing in on, absorbing and translating sounds of an allotment garden and its surroundings. The mud used was taken from the site. Each mark represents a sound, made every time that sound was heard, conveyed using a key of tone, line and movement.
