sound artists
Sonic environment designers
Sound artists create works where sound itself is the primary medium rather than a vehicle for melody or rhythm.
The field spans installations, sculptures, performances, and recordings that explore acoustics, noise, silence, or environmental audio.
Sound art occupies territory between music, visual art, and conceptual practice: The gallery featured sound artists working with field recordings and feedback loops.
