Press Release







JACK STRAW NEW MEDIA GALLERY PRESENTS   

Sympatico

 

SYMPATICO


an installation by Carlisle Roveto
May 13 - July 8, 2011  

Opening Reception: Friday, May 13, 7pm

Artist Talk: Friday, June 10, 7pm   

 

Sympatico is an interactive sound installation that explores how we place energy into objects and how in turn those objects affect us. The viewer is invited to walk among several columns

which support transparent puppets. Foot pedals allow the viewer to activate the puppets, which in turn will rap out a beat.

 

Carlisle Roveto is a multi-media artist based in Seattle, Washington. Born in Albuquerque NM, she moved to Seattle and earned a BFA in Ceramics from the University of Washington in 2009. Currently, she is exploring physics and simple machines through experimentation. She often leaves the working parts of her pieces exposed for the viewer to share the experience of a simple but beautiful mechanical process.

 

About Jack Straw Productions
 

Jack Straw Productions is a non-profit multidisciplinary arts organization dedicated to the creation, production and presentation of all forms of audio art. Jack Straw Productions' history began in 1962, when a group of artists, educators, and journalists formed the Jack Straw Foundation, which founded KRAB-FM, one of the first community radio stations in the United States. Jack Straw continues to assist artists, educational institutions, and community organizations that are interested in working creatively with sound through our audio production services and recording studios, artist residency programs, educational programs, and community partnerships. Jack Straw Productions has called Seattle's University District home since 1989.
