Duncan Whitley

Consultant Artist Service Provider Digital Installation Other Moving Image

Artist, filmmaker and documentary sound recordist. My art practice synthesises filmmaking, spatial sound and electronic music production, with varying degrees of co-creation from project to project. In recent years my work has been exhibited in Coventry Biennial, Whitworth Art Gallery, Whitechapel Art Gallery, Aesthetica Film Festival, Flatpack Film Festival, and more. I have presented site-specific projects, audiovisual works, installations and live multi-channel sound works in the UK, Europe and South America.
