For Paradigm Webb has installed ‘Fence In‘ a new work that combines glitch and real world sounds taken from temporary fencing in Edinburgh. The audio within the room emanates from intermittent speakers hung from wires. The sound of chain link fences resonating, stretching and breathing as the wind passes through them. A projection flickers within the room alternating between dual imagery, infrequently mirroring each other. These visuals create an awareness of a second soundtrack that accompanies these images, an awkward choreography where glitch audio-visuals interrupt the subtle inhale/exhale from the fences. These introduced borders within our landscape offer more than control and protection they are sites of exchange, thresholds where transactions occur heightened by our senses.
