• last couple of days to view my experimental swamp short film at the @hilliardartmuseum :: major thank you to @_gwennie + @ullafayette for having me, and to @thecurrentla for featuring a couple stills in their latest volume (digital link in bio)

this piece was created on visual + internal listening within my many hours spent in the swamp, filmed over the last seven years with prism play reflecting back on itself : further reflecting on this archival + listening importance within our changing louisiana landscape due to the oligarchy… more on that to talk about

full 333 video to come / ‘gulf streams: atchafalaya remixed’ closes 8/22

When it comes to sound art, how we listen is how we see. Through the regional exhibition, “Gulf Streams: Atchafalaya Remixed”, art moves from the field to the gallery, bringing the sights and sounds of the swamp forward, but there’s a catch - they are also flipped, remixed, and re-envisioned.

Discover more about the art of listening in our latest story on our digital hub at HilliardArtMuseum.org.

Summer programming is presented by Dr. Jay Culotta and Kiki Frayard.
