Description
Sounds Like Her
14 December – 7 March 2020
Gallery 2 and 3, Gallery Oldham
Sounds Like Her is a touring exhibition curated by Christine Eyene and produced by New Art Exchange. It brings together six artists to explore what sound can mean in different contexts.
The exhibition includes the latest version of Sonia Boyce’s Devotional Series, an ongoing piece that documents the input of influential black women in the music industry.
Christine Sun Kim has been deaf since birth. Her contribution to Sounds Like Her investigates how sound can be experienced when you are unable to hear – primarily through sight and touch.
The exhibition also includes pieces by Ain Bailey, Madeleine Mbida, Magda Stawarska-Beavan and Linda O’Keeffe.
