The visual is the commanding sense in the art world and it can often dominate over our other perceptions. By cutting away any visual distraction I am absorbing the viewer in a sound installation that explores the diverse qualities of sound. Abstraction is used to communicate the qualities of the sound; a more literal use of sound can create referential imaging that diverts from such qualities. I want to take the viewer though a sonic experience that disorientates suspends and overwhelms them. Leeds is a vastly growing city and the monopoly of development is constantly changing the face of the city. The sounds used are taken from the everyday construction of the city. The abstraction of sound and manipulation of repetition reflects this monotonous construction.
