Troika presents three
sound works by artists Eric Demetriou, Vincent Giles, and Nigel Tan. Each
artist adopts sound as a material to explore the spatial, visual, and
sculptural. The exhibition is set across two locations on the
University of Melbourne’s Parkville campus: the main gallery of George Paton
Gallery, and the System Garden Tower outside the School of Botany.
As a self-supporting sculpture, Eric
Demetriou’s Da Vinci Bridge flirts with conceptual and everyday notions of
noise. Demetriou’s sculpture mischievously employs an anarchic gesture of noise
as aural excess and as site for sonic exploration.
Vincent Giles's The Great Unhearing is
sound installation in the iconic System Garden. Giles transforms the System
Garden Tower into a resonating space responsive to the tower and the
surrounding garden.
Nigel Tan’s audio-visual installation #30 is
a collaborative project with fifteen visual artists. The installation examines
and informs unorthodox associations between sound and film.
