Bright White Light

in collaboration with SCRAAATCH

Light & sound installation with performance at Locks Gallery, Philadelphia, May 2017

Bright White Light, made in collaboration with SCRAAATCH, involved a series of lighting fixtures modified to emit sound. The sound in Bright White Light was sourced from a live performance of SCRAAATCH No. 11 at Locks Gallery. SCRAAATCH, the Philadelphia-based artist duo of E. Jane and chukwumaa, uses electronic music, experimental composition and performance as starting points to engage feelings and thoughts concerning inhabitants of the Black diaspora. Originally performed at the New Museum, SCRAAATCH No. 11 explores a collection of performance gestures, productions, field recordings and sound design elements to realize an aleatory composition dealing with haunting.
