Working on:
I have just finished a set of sound pieces, Fountains, which will be released on the cassette label Eminent Observer in the next few weeks. And I’m back in my studio, working on drawings in relation to the sounds and the landscapes they were recorded in.
I’ve also been researching and recording my radio show, Sonic Envelopes, that goes out on RTM.FM on the last Wednesday of each month. In the next episode I interview the artist Gabriella Hirst about her sound piece ‘Siren Song/The Winner Takes it All’ and we talk about Greek myths, Eurovision and the practicality of using sea sponges as a windshield.
Hannah Dargavel-Leafe is an artist and researcher based in London. Her practice considers landscape and sound within the expanded field of sculpture.
