Kate Carr is a London based Australian artist whose work is is grounded within the practice of field recording. Using microphones Carr finds sounds within a body of water, the internal vibrations of a building, or the rumbling noises deep within the earth, which she then uses in thoughtful ambient compositions, that blur the boundaries between instruments and ‘found’ sound.
