Strike
Strike | the mark feeds the score | surface as notation is a duo-exhibition between Hannan Jones and Shamica Ruddock. Developed during a two-year residency at Wysing Arts Centre. The exhibition has been commissioned and produced in partnership with Wysing Arts Centre, Forma and Knotenpunkt.
Metal shaped nearby in Bermondsey, wood from Cambridgeshire, and ethically sourced hide and dyes from Dartmoor, are combined with Jarrah wood from Australia and Mahogany from the Caribbean to create a new sonic language drawn from contexts that are significant to the artists. Driven by the question, ‘what histories and sounds might resonate from the surface of material’, the resulting work brings multiple sites, histories of production and sonic imaginaries into conversation, depending on who is looking and what reverberates.
