PERFORMANCE + ARTIST TALK: Richard Garet

June 25, 2025 @ 7:00 pm

Richard Garet is a contemporary artist whose work spans sound art, experimental music, visual art, and multimedia installation. Merging sound, vision, and technology, Garet creates immersive environments that examine perception, time, and the evolving relationships between analog and digital media, often through ontological inquiries and the activation of background noise. In Rebirth, Garet explores cycles of destruction and renewal through sound, light, and digital debris. The work unfolds as an intricate dialogue between glitching visuals and sonic disturbances, where light acts not as a neutral medium but as an active force that modulates spatial perception. Temporal dislocations and layered visual noise reinforce the work’s ephemeral and ever-shifting nature. His sonic material is drawn from amplified electromagnetic emissions, modified audiocassettes, dysfunctional tape mechanisms, altered speakers, circuit boards, sonified light, field recordings, and computer-based processes. These raw elements form unstable textures that waver between saturation and disappearance, generating a reciprocal field where sound and image continuously influence and transform one another.
