Event overview
Artist's talk by Aura Satz followed by a conversation with Kodwo Eshun. Part of the Visual Cultures Public Programme.
Aura Satz is an artist whose work encompasses film, sound, performance and sculpture. In recent years she has made a collection of films which look closely at sound visualisation through various technologies and acoustic devices such as a Chladni plate, a Ruben’s tube, a theremin, mechanical music, phonograph grooves and drawn/optical sound. Her works pay close attention to the materiality of such technologies, the resulting sound patterns - codes in the act of formation - and how these destabilise paradigms of writing and readership. She has performed, exhibited and screened her work nationally and internationally. In 2012 she was shortlisted for the Samsung Art+ award, and the Jarman award. Forthcoming exhibitions include a solo show at the Hayward project Space (London), at Paradise Row gallery (London), and ‘Curiosity: Art and the Pleasures of Knowing’, as part of Hayward Touring exhibition in association with Cabinet Magazine, curated by Brian Dillon, Turner Contemporary (Margate), Norwich Castle Museum and Art Gallery, Royal Hibernian Academy (Dublin), de Appel arts centre (Amsterdam). Her projects can be seen online http://www.iamanagram.com
