The Milker Corporation presents:
The Grove of Drift
A sound installation created by Jennifer Walshe.
|
The Grove of Drift
Jennifer Walshe works here with the design idiosyncracies of electric
fans to shape an installation environment. Fans and speakers surround
the listener in an atmospherically darkened room. The listener is
buffeted by sounds carried on an air-stream from the fans that phase
in and out with each other. Drifts of sound will surround you, press
in on you, withdraw and move around the space.
Jennifer’s work has been performed throughout Europe, the U.S. and
Canada. Recent projects of note include XXX_LIVE_NUDE_GIRLS!!!, a
chamber opera for Barbie dolls, commissioned by Dresdener Tage der
zeitgenössischen Musik and Wien Modern, and performed by Apartment
House in Dresden, Vienna, Oxford, Stuttgart and Brugges. Her most
recent opera, Motel Abandon, was commissioned by the DAAD Berliner
Künstlerprogramm and performed in Berlin in November 2005.
“Without a doubt, hers is the most original compositional voice to
emerge in Ireland in the last 20 years.” - Michael Dervan, The Irish
Times
