Ken Gregory Exhibition – I Remember Falling

August 21, 2019 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Video Pool and Arts Accessibility Network Manitoba present the 5.1 surround sound exhibition I Remember Falling by Ken Gregory:

A Greek myth, a contemporary sound artist and a blacksmith walk into a bar. Driven by an ever deepening curiosity, artist and novice blacksmith Ken Gregory reaches into the past to explore the story of the birth of Hephaetus and how it relates to our contemporary society. Using blacksmithing traditions as a foundation for creating an immersive soundscape, Gregory examines how contemporary society has given short shrift to those whose bodies and/or minds don’t fit in to what is considered normal.

2019 | immersive sound installation | materials: 5.1 sound surround audio system, digital audio files | dimensions: room sized, variable
