Artists Amanda Gutierrez and Ximena Alarcon, chaired by Viv Corringham
Amanda Gutierrez and Ximena Alarcon will each present their artistic practice, followed by a conversation chaired by Viv Corringham. Three women artists working with sound as an art form.
Ximena writes: “I am very interested in walking these days, as in searching for a sense of place; also in relation to breathing, through which we feel presence (also across distant locations)! Derived from my work of the last two years with the project INTIMAL, I am developing a prototype of an app to connect with others between distant locations while performing “migratory journeys” simultaneously, through the embodied experiences of breathing, walking, and speaking.”

The soundwalk “Los Pasos de Mama Killa” (The Steps of Mama Killa) explores the collective meaning of agency at night, presenting the nighttime as a communal and relational space grounded in mutual care. The sound design was developed using sound-augmented reality on the ECHOES platform. This work was created for the Sur Aural Sound Festival in 2024, held in Cochabamba, Bolivia.
Walking slowly while recording the unseen
Get behind the microphone to discover how one makes compelling audio recordings that engage both armchair listeners and those of us out and about on foot. We are delighted to have brought together four creatives who have travelled to remote places, revealed hidden histories, and captured the soundscapes and voices of past and present, to enable us to sit back in comfort or stride forward to listen to what is unseen.
