Mirja Wellmann – NoiseTalk

For sculptor and sound artist Mirja Wellmann it always starts with hearing, with locating. She‘s often called a professional listener because she spends many hours exploring the soundscape of a room or space. A performance at a chosen place always starts with listening to the local sounds followed by a transformation of the collected noise into a distinct mode of expression via Mirja Wellmann‘s own vocabulary. Combined with Michael Fetscher‘s field recordings a new genre arises: the NoiseTalk.
