Margot Didsbury (aka P.Westbourne), is an intermedia artist based in Auckland. She studied at Elam graduating in 2003, and completed an artist residency at USF Verftet in Norway in 2004. She has shown and performed work around New Zealand, including The Physics Room, Blue Oyster, rm103, and her recent collaboration with Lebanese artist Akram Zaatari for the Interdigitate fesival at MIC. Her work involves sonic photographs of audible spaces, collecting environments that are as diverse as the cacophony of Japanese pachinko parlours to the silence of Helsinki's library. The sounds are introduced to each other in a collage - based narrative, colliding and melting together in digital space. |
