Jana Winderen - Energy Field (2010)


Artystka wykształcona w Goldsmiths College w Londynie (wydział sztuk pięknych) oraz na Uniwersytecie Oslo (chemia i matematyka). Od 1993 roku pracuje jako artystka, kuratorka i producentka. Obecnie mieszka i pracuje w Oslo. Jana Winderen bada „ukryte” za pośrednictwem najnowszych technologii – jej praca odsłania złożoność i dziwność niewidzialnego, ukrytego świata. Wydobywa na powierzchnię topografię dźwiękową oceanów i głębi szczelin lodowych. Zajmuje się wyszukiwaniem i ujawnianiem dźwięków z ukrytych źródeł, zarówno niesłyszalnych dla ludzkiego ucha, jak i dźwięków miejsc i stworzeń, do których trudno dotrzeć. (soundplay)

Jana Winderen researches the hidden depths with the latest technology; her work reveals the complexity and strangeness of the unseen world beneath. The audio topography of the oceans and the depth of ice crevasses is brought to the surface. She is concerned with finding and revealing sounds from hidden sources, like blind field recording.

The recordings were made on field trips to the Barents Sea (north of Norway and Russia), Greenland and Norway, deep in crevasses of glaciers, in fjords and in the open ocean. These elements are then edited and layered into a powerful descriptive soundscape. The open spaces of Greenland, northern winds, ravens and dogs in an icy landscape provide the setting for these haunting but dynamic pieces. Sounds of crustaceans, fish such as cod, haddock, herring and pollock recorded as they are hunting, calling for a mate or orientating themselves in their environment, are all included in the mix. The result is a powerful, mesmeric journey into the unseen audio world of the frozen north. (touchshop)
