Electronic and Spoken Word (Field Recording, Drone, Sound Art)
'Shift' is based on recordings of (disused and functioning) factories and other former Soviet urban locations in Kaunas, Lithuania. The sounds were recorded in September 2015 during “Cotemporal Encounters: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Sound, Memory and Place”, an art residency programme curated by Sandra Kazlauskaitė and led by Jeremy Keenan. During the residency the invited artists conceptually and physically explored a number of architectural sites in Kaunas, chosen for their historical, political and social significance. The aim of Shift is to reverse the stigma of these sites, often recognized as places of monotony and routine, and create a new and transformed identity for them, explored with mystery and wonder. Original collaboration in Kaunas with Hrvoslava Brkušić resulted in a sonic performance and an installation piece titled “Unfitted Dust”. 'Shift' took its current form in London during November 2015.
