Lionel Marchetti Natura Morta
Why pile fruit on a table with a single loud speaker hidden underneath, and leave it to rot for two weeks? Natura Morta gives us a strange object; a visual sound installation of dead things, a sculpture combining nature and electric technology, a rotting sculpture, it’s beauty a result of natural chemistry. The colours fade, slowly, with time - will the sound rot too? Does the sound follow the colours? The light will give to the sculpture a feeling of a moving shadow. Natura Morta is an eye which speaks from the burning of the fire of time.

Artist Talk  Friday 2 July  5:00 – 6:00 pm with Lionel Marchetti discussing the art of the loudspeaker.

Semantic Clutter is the creative detritus as generated throughout the artists work process. It is their fleeting ideas, forgotten moments of genius and experimental experiments that fall by the wayside during their pursuit of the elusive final piece.
In alignment with the Liquid Architecture ethos, ten sound and new media artists will inhabit West Space Gallery over a period of 17 days to question, construct and collaborate amongst themselves. Punters are invited to experience their Semantic Clutter on a first-hand basis via a range of openhouse events. These include alternating exhibitions, an unlocked rehearsal door where you may stumble across a "Work In Progress" and closing night performances. Detailed Semantic Clutter programs are available at the gallery and online.
