To Hold a Form: Art with sound in the work of Jennie C. Jones, LaRissa Rogers, and Naama Tsabar

To Hold a Form brings together the work of three artists while exploring the transformative use of sound, silence and bodily intervention in contemporary art. The artists work creatively with sound, noise and silence to engage with a wide array of cultural, political, phenomenological and artistic questions. Jennie C. Jones' minimalist works reflect the deep influence of African American jazz and music on the modernist movement in the U.S. Naama Tsabar makes art that can be seen as wall pieces, sculptures or musical instruments using piano wire and sound equipment, with work activated throughout the exhibition. LaRissa Rogers' multidisciplinary practice combines aspects of personal memory and archival history to explore how identity is formed and remembered, with a brand-new site-specific work installation created at the Lilley Museum experimenting with temporality in sound.
