New Horizons
2020 - ongoing · installation with sound and video, deconstructed vehicle: car doors, subwoofer, radio player, and speakers.
New Horizons explores displacement, nationhood, and identity through speculative 3D-simulated fictive landscapes, challenging assumptions around belonging, cartography, and territory.
Sound and installation become a means of navigating futurologies of diasporic existence. The soundscape is activated through a freestanding car radio player, connected by elongated wires that extend across the installation to the freestanding vehicle cardoors with working speakers and a subwoofer. This fragmented audio system transforms the components of the vehicle into a spatial network of sound, evoking movement and distance.
Exhibited at: Nayland Rock Hotel Ballroom, supported by Margate NOW, England, UK; and Cryptic presents Sonica, in partnership with Civic Room, North Street, Glasgow, Scotland, UK.
