Sonia Leber and David Chesworth are joining our gallery.
They are a Melbourne-based collaborative duo that work across sound, video and installation art, using the human voice as their principal medium. Their sound-based installations transform public sites into zones of exploration and discovery, with visitors left to navigate their way though the physical space and the dense compositions of sonic elements. These are immersive works that envelop the viewer and blur the distinctions between observing and being observed. At times confronting and disorientating, Leber and Chesworth’s work uncovers a portal to the phantasmagorical, hidden amongst the everyday.
Leber and Chesworth were finalists in the 2011 Melbourne Prize for Urban Sculpture.
