GALERIE8 Sunday Sound Waves

About GALERIE8

GALERIE8 is a contemporary art gallery located in the Arthaus building of London Fields. Through exploration of the art form’s relation to its sociocultural context, the programme presents international and local artists, site-specific installations, and innovative platforms that look for alternatives to the white cube space.

Throughout six weeks in July and August, this series will aim to critically engage with the surrounding environment through sound, and to explore the influences it has on new ways of making and experiencing visual forms.
The series includes a broad range of artists and creators that are increasingly blurring genre lines and sensibilities in the realms of sound and visual culture. Participating artists will do this by recording the sounds of architectural spaces, re-inventing musical instruments, using sound as a sculptural material, or working with music and cinematography.
