'Soundings' for the Exhibition 'Vassen Susar' in Finland

By Caroline Dear 2015
This exhibition with two Scottish artists and four Finnish developed out of the residency at Saari, Finland. We were exploring reed as a material as it is an ecological problem in Finland. I created an installation using the cleaned reed stalks to fill a room, through which people walked. In another room I used the sound of the reeds along with a series of black and white images of reed in my own landscape of Skye. see my website for more inforamtion
