For You, Only You

c. Sonia Boyce 2007

Best known as a visual artist, particularly dealing with issues of ethnicity, Sonia Boyce's latest project took her into the realm of sound. What, she asked herself, were the connections - and indeed the differences - between classical music and sound art, much of which can be dependent on pure chance? For You, Only You uses the human voice as the link. It brings together a Renaissance masterpiece by Josquin Desprez, Tu Solus Qui Facis Mirabilia (You Alone Can Work Wonders), and work by contemporary Greek composer Mikhail Karikis.

The resulting video installation will be shown as a triptych on three separate screens in the atmospheric Great Hall of Newcastle's Castle Keep.

Commissioned by Locus + to coincide with AV Festival 08.
On entry to Castle Keep, mention visit to installation. All proceeds to Castle Keep.
