Jez riley French

Focusing on sound as both material and subject, my work uses a variety of formats to explore place, sounds outside of our attention and our response to located elements and experience.

Alongside performances and exhibitions JrF gives talks and runs workshops on located sound as an art form and has developed a range of specialist microphones and techniques now widely used across all areas of sound culture.

Key works involve the sound of the dolomites dissolving, ants consuming fallen fruit, buildings resonating, teleferica’s interacting with locales, the infrasound of domestic spaces, the inner sounds of trees, plants and soil systems, glaciers melting and the tonal resonances of natural and human objects in the landscape. I also collaborate, on sound works and curatorial projects, with my daughter, the artist Pheobe riley Law
