Natalie Allen is an environmental artist who works in sympathy with our deep ocean in the mediums of sound and glass.
This body of work sets the mind to our deep ocean and feel the life within her, through sound and sculpture.
The work is made intuitively, reflecting on the origins of life and traces of the past. The work is transitory, more of a sense than a conclusion, always in motion, organic and intimate.
The audio has been produced by layering sonic elements together and sculpting environmental sounds and voice into an expanded reality, creating a deep sensory watery experience that translates the essence of the ocean frequencies.
Communication of whales, haddock, and offshore pile drivers within the deep abyss acts as a scaffolding for this sound piece.
The glass is cast from the ocean floor revealing water flow which resonates with the sound and gleaned beach glass to create panels that illuminate our fused history.
