music and sound art

Singing, walking and listening to sounds of the environment are at the heart of my work and life. In terms of music, I perform as an improvising vocalist who enjoys collaborations. My sound art usually involves walking, often with others, as a way of mapping people’s relationship with place and how that links up with memory. I am excited that place now has a wider meaning, reaching into virtual space, which helps with that sense of isolation I can feel at times. As a woman it’s hard not to get frustrated at inequalities that still exist. Yet, in my work, it may be that being female makes it easier for people to trust me and share their walks and thoughts with me.
