Amy Beeston discusses environmental sustainability in sound art practices

roam festival’s first online event brings Amy Beeston in collaboration with Yorkshire Sound Women Network.

Amy is a sound and visual artist whose focuses on listening, considering why it is important to create artworks around our environment. She will join us for an online talk and group discussion to consider ideas and approaches to environmental sustainability in sound art practices.

After sharing examples of her own and others’ work to open the session, the discussion will then be open for everyone to share thoughts about the role that art (and especially sound art) plays in generating hope and encouraging actions aimed at improving our society and planetary health.
