SHELTERED: PRESENTATION + LISTENING EXPERIENCE
Sheltered is an art and science collaboration project between Lund-based artist Tim Bishop and the Climate Impacts Research Center at Umeå University. Primarily consisting of immersive sound recordings made on location inside the Arctic Circle across 12 months, Sheltered was recently shown at Inter Arts Center in Malmö as an immersive, multi-sensory and interactive installation exploring climate change using real-time measurement of EEG (brain wave ) data from each visitor to trigger changes in recreated weather events. During Kulturnatten, the artist will give a background to the project and a presentation of his experiences making the work on location in the north of Sweden, as well as introduce a specially-curated headphone listening experience of the art work.
Sheltered is supported by Kulturbryggan and Lund Municipality, with additional support from Naturkompaniet Lund. The project was first shown at Inter Arts Center in Malmö during August 2023.
Tim Bishop is a performance and sound artist based in Lund, Sweden. His practice focuses on creating personal connections between artwork and audience, prompting individual and, often, emotional responses through sensory, evocative and highly aesthetic experiences. Revolving around each participant's perceptions of themselves and the environment around them, often in a one-to-one context, Tim uses spatial audio, darkness and immersive technologies to explore knowledge of the self through our shared experiences.
Tim's work has been shown in Sweden, Norway, Romania, Russia and the UK, including performances at Arnolfini gallery, Bristol, Lunds konsthall, Dunkers kulturhus in Helsingborg, Galleri CC in Malmö and Kulturhuset, Stockholm. Tim is also the founder and curator of Mono Festival of One-to-One Performance and has taught spatial audio, MaxMSP and field recording techniques at places such as Lund University, Malmö Art Academy, Region Gävleborg, VR Narrative Lab and BoostHbg.
