Sneak Preview of the exhibition
Welcome to the ‘Heard and Not Seen’ blog and website. ‘Heard and Not Seen’ is an arts project by Sandra Hall and Mitra Memarzia supported by Friction Arts. The project aims to create a unique, safe space for people to meet and ask questions with each other, of each other; particularly about faith, religion and spirituality. More details about the project can be found here.
We got down to the space to test out the installations today – and we were not disappointed. We managed to get the layout of the space sorted out and pretty much had the structures where they will be in the final show next week. Darren Joyce got to test out our surround sound system for the audio environment he has created for the project and we were all impressed with the result. There’s a great sense of being somewhere else which Darren manages to engender in the listener, with a layered, moving soundscape that is at once familiar and comfortingly strange.

Had to obscure the structures in the photos – you wouldn’t need to come to the exhibition if I didn’t!
We also got our first look at some of Steve Carson’s amazing, responsive video projections – it was fantastic seeing the films and interviews with people around the space and incredible being able to interact with them. We are all even more excited about the exhibition and really looking forward to seeing everyone else get a chance to join in.

So where are the pictures from the exhibition? What will we get to see?
The exhibition opens next Friday and runs until the 28th – you’ll have to come along then – we’re just teasing for now. Once the exhibition is up and running we’ll be posting images here. You wouldn’t want us to spoil the surprise, would you?
