MA work

MA work

I am a curator and writer based in London. I am interested in sound in the arts, art theory and curating contemporary art. I enjoy questioning and describing matters arising from these interests by writing both academically and journalistically.

My academic research functions in three steps: ontological studies of works of contemporary sound art (what is a work of sound art?); my thoughts on the perception of sound art and the differences between hearing and listening; and finally, my interest in sound art as it appears in the gallery space with relation to curatorial practice.
