Harvestworks is pleased to announce 2007 Artist In Residence Tres Warren’s surround-sound installation Umbra(Tent) will be presented at the Emily Harvey Foundation. Described by the artist as  “a blurred rumination on the hypnosis of disorientation,” the focus of the installation is Untitled(How Many Bread...), a surround-sound audio piece based on a street field recordings and a series of recurring synthesizer loops that unfold through a hazy trajectory that is at once chaotic and meditative. For the presentation of this piece, Warren has constructed a hand sewn large-scale refuge resembling a tent, out of fabric and other found objects. Other sculptural and collage works will be on hand as well.
