about

In this sound study of a thermal bath in the Swiss alps, Kamimura researched the acoustics and materials of the Therme Vals inside and outside the building. The contact, underwater and airborne recordings reveal the musicality of Peter Zumthor’s architecture. In a mirrored sequence Jobin enhances the resonances and rhythms between stones, waters and mountains.

France Jobin is a sound / installation / artist, composer and curator residing in Montreal, Canada. Her audio art can be qualified as “sound-sculpture”, revealing a minimalist approach to complex sound environments where analog and digital intersect. Many of her projects are inspired by theories related to topics such as vacuum decay, string theory and quantum entanglement.

Drawing chiefly upon his field recordings, Kamimura experiments with methods that draw upon sight, hearing, and other senses to perceive different scenes. His extensive body of work includes sound installations, paintings, video works, sound performances, and audio works - unveiled in venues both within Japan and abroad.
