Water with Matterlurgy - Helena Hunter & Mark Peter Wright

I am joined by the artist duo Matterlurgy to talk about Water! Matterlurgy are a research-based artist duo composed of Helena Hunter and Mark Peter Wright. Some of their projects have responded to sites such as a hydropower station, disused steelworks, a laboratory for ice simulation, an abandoned copper mine, as well as galleries and museum collections. Examining ways of sensing, translating and representing environmental change.Our conversation focused on some of their projects that surround water.. From viewing ocean water under the microscope and the invisible activity which we are unable to see through the naked eye, through to complex river ecosystems. We discussed how they use installation, sculpture and film to bring this research into gallery/museum spaces, and the mediums that enable them to share these ideas.. LinksMatterlurgy website: https://www.matterlurgy.net/projectsMatterlurgy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/matterlurgy_studio/Mark Peter Wright artist website: https://markpeterwright.net/Helena Hunter artist website: https://www.helenahunter.net/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_helena_hunter/?hl=enMIMA (Middlesbrough Museum of Modern Art): https://mima.art/The Seili project was hosted by Contemporary Art in the Archipelago: https://contemporaryartarchipelago.org/Sensitives Steam, website link: https://sensitives.stream/Arts Catylist: https://artscatalyst.org/ Flom Sang: https://www.matterlurgy.net/flom-sangMuseum of Sheffield artist's page: https://www.sheffieldmuseums.org.uk/whats-on/meet-the-artists-matterlurgy/Bakewell Old House Museum: https://www.oldhousemuseum.org.uk/Wellcome Collection: https://wellcomecollection.org/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwsc24BhDPARIsAFXqAB00eCUGltjjED65pjkD0CpUH1MnHFEyh9s57mUx30ZR0o6jikMFT9QaAj9wEALw_wcB Hosted on Acast.
