Camille Norment: Cultural Psychoacoustics
Sound is a physical force that connects everything in its omnidirectional path. The term ‘psychoacoustics’ names the study of sonic phenomena as it meets, interacts with, and is transformed by encounters with objects, structures, bodies, and minds across time and space. Camille Norment coined the term ‘cultural psychoacoustics’ as a dynamic aesthetic and conceptual framework to probe and politicize the various cultures of sonic investigation, particularly instances of sonic and social dissonance. Here, the sonic is not only sound listened to, but sound felt, and even imagined. ‘Cultural psychoacoustics’ augments the notions of time and space to include conceptual dimensions such as historical time and global zeitgeist. Human and non-human bodies are activated through the resonance of empathetic narratives that emerge between the present, and a multiplicity of concurrent histories and futures.
Camille Norment is working with, and through sound in forms including installation, composition, sculpture, drawing and performance. Norment utilizes the notion of ‘cultural psychoacoustics’ as both an aesthetic and conceptual framework for the creation of works that are both somatic and cognitive. Current investigations continue the exploration of feedback in relation to revolution, evolution, power structures, spirituality, and posthuman systems, within sliding scales and spectrums of time, space, and body.
Recent exhibition and performance highlights include solo commissions for the Dia Art Foundation in New York, solo exhibition as the Festival Artist 2023 in Bergen Kunsthall and the simultaneous premier of a 13-ensemble music commission in the Bergen Festspillene music festival, exhibition in Punta della Dogana, Venice, and related performance, and the premier of a performance commission for the Munch Museum, Oslo. Norment represented Norway in the Venice Biennial 2015, and was the recipient of the Nam June Paik Award 2023. Camille Norment is born in Silver Spring Maryland, she lives and works in Oslo, Norway.
The lecture will be held in English.
