Kathy McTavish: Birdland

kathymctavishJanuary 18 – April 8
George Morrison Gallery
Gallery Celebration, January 18, 6:30 – 8 pm
Artist Dialogue, February 2, 5:30 pm

Kathy creates transformative soundscapes and uses chance and generative/organic forms to create everything from sparse, minimalist spaces to dense, orchestral landscapes. She performs in venues ranging from streetscapes to concert halls. This will be her first large scale installation work and will incorporate her recent experimentations with film and still photography.  

“Through studies in mathematics, ecology and music theory I developed a framework for modeling dynamical systems (how things move and change through time and space), chance, minimalism, ways of distilling complexity into simple forms, approaches to free improvisation, polyphony, harmonic progression and orchestration”
