Siri Austeen

Sound artist based i Oslo, Norway
In her artistic practice, Austeen is concerned with the relationship between sound, place and identity, working at the intersection of audio and visual art. Her interest in process-oriented art and extended vocal techniques in the early 80s became a bridge over to time-based media such as sound. Today her work focuses on the impact various listening strategies have on our reception of reality and the personal experience of an investigative and sensory self. Relations between individual, collective and ecological structures often form an underlying focus in her work.
Sound and the act of listening relate to the passing of time, and accordingly to how time is spent. In one of her ongoing projects, Sonic Propagation, the artist uses transducer technology to transmit sound, using various physical materials as membranes, allowing her to explore new approaches towards sound, place and reality.

Austeen’s artistic practice is based on field recordings, site-specific installations, participatory projects, musical productions, performance and commissioned art projects.
