Over her winter residency at Audio Foundation, Sina Leo has developed a new work exploring accumulation and the passage of creative time. The multidisciplinary artist presents in the back gallery an exhibition of painting and installation titled Threads.
Through August and September, Sina invited three musicians, Ryan Tomov, Francesca Parussini and Tashi Stewart, to visit her individually and improvise in sequential solo recording sessions. Musicians were tasked with adding to what their predecessor had made of their time in session. With each round, the layers of sound deepened in tandem with the painting.
Between sessions, Sina turned to installation to further consider ideas of retention, extending the work’s meditation on accumulation beyond the paint and into sculptural complexity. The finished exhibition brings the painting, the installation, and the complete layered recordings together, presenting the full arc of the collaboration as one work.
