Sound Art: Robert Curgenven

Bringing to light hidden sounds which revolve around us, catching them, awakening visual perceptions through the language of images, by means of expressive gestures which unveil what nature keeps concealed: these are some elements of Robert Curgenven's project, Australian sound artist now based in Europe.
His activities range from installations to exhibitions, live performances, compositions and, of course, environmental recordings.
Most of his audio works have been published by "Recorded Fields", his own label, an essential resource for followers of this kind of research.
Robert’s exploration represents a valuable reference guide for those who want to undertake such an adventure made of synaesthetic experiences.
