With a practice combining sculptural and auditory elements, Steve Parker’s exhibition Futurist Listening reimagines the role of sensory audience participation as a social interruption, blending the sculptural and the sonic in an environment that offers respite from the chaos beyond the exhibition’s walls. Parker’s use of repurposed instruments and early sonic technology links the loud, tumultuous history of the early 20th century, as expressed in the music of brass bands, to the noise of everyday life.
