Slipway to the Galaxies
New works by Swiss Artist
Charlotte Hug
Opening Thursday 9 September at 7:00pm
(Performance at 8:00pm)
Running until Sunday 3 October
Slipway to the Galaxies audio-visual, Son-icons and sound installation is inspired by the Cork Dockyard in Rushbrooke which captivated Charlotte Hug during her residencies in Ireland which have been ongoing since 2005 with organisations such as ArtTrail and Sirius Arts Centre. As part of her opening reception Charlotte will perform Anderwelten for viola and voice at Sirius Arts Centre at 8:00pm.
Sound and the body interacting with external space, is what drives Swiss artist, Charlotte Hug to create installations and perform concerts of music and sound. Working with a combination of viola and voice, she creates a third kind of sound quality. Through a retuning and re-strining of the viola, Hug brings physicality to the sounds she creates.
