An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
Mashed up queer fantasy of worker’s revolts, biblical demons and present-day hells, and dubbed out cyborg-electro.
