Paulo Vivacqua

Paulo Vivacqua creates site-specific sound installations and sound objects as well as collaborative projects with video and performance artists. He explores how sound can build up and influence different perceptions of both physical and imaginative space. He invites the viewer to individually experience (at times while wandering around his often large installations) this invisible yet highly narrative space of actions and emotions generated by time, sound and silence. He frequently creates matrixes of tweeters (the small treble components of speakers) employing materials ranging from everyday sounds recorded in nature and urban environments to electronically produced sounds.
