ABOUT THE ARTIST
Richard Garet is a sound and visual artist that currently lives and works in New York, USA. He is interested in the phenomena found and produced in aural and visual time-based media, in nature's processes, and human beings' relationship with both artificial and natural environments. Garet explores the it-referential, communicational, and sensory characteristics of the various media he utilizes. Additionally, he focuses on the investigation of aural and visual spatial-contexts, relational structures, process, materiality, function, and form. Even though Garet's work suits the standard gallery setting, many of his other activities as an artist explore the various practices of experimental sound and video performance. All of these modes are additional ways in which Garet's work exposes the audience to visual and physical-acoustic sensory perception. Richard Garet has collaborated in the past with artists Andy Graydon, Gill Arno, Ben Owen, Gil Sanson, and André Goncalves through the EA collective. He has also collaborated with Asher, Brendan Murray, Shimpei Takeda, Sawako, Chika Iijima, Bruce Tovsky, Bruce McClure, Adam Kendall, Jeremy Slater, Peter Eudenbach, Wolfgang Von Stürmer, Zimoun, Zach Layton, Aaron Kadoch, and David Velez. His interdisciplinary media work has been showed in the USA and internationally and his sound work has been released by the sound-art labels Non Visual Objects, Winds Measure Recordings, Unframed Recordings, Con-V, Leerraum, and White_Line Editions.
