A. LINDSAY DOBBIN | Arrival

Words from Katie Belcher, Director/Curator of Access Gallery Vancouver:

Lindsay Dobbin’s practice of deep listening, and sustained engagement with the Bay of Fundy is reflected in Arrival, in which they build a spacious soundscape with two tones acting as wave cycles. This sound piece results from Dobbin’s performance, Drumming the Tide, which they describe as a “six hour intertidal drumming pilgrimage.” The performance took place in August 2014, when the tides were reaching their highest in a 28-year cycle. Beginning at the water’s edge, Dobbin struck their handmade drum each time the advancing tide met their body, and took a step forward toward the shore. Dobbin explains, “from low to high tide, these very simple and humble gestures grounded me in the experience as I became aligned with the (im)pulse of the ocean, entering a deep state of awareness where the rhythm was slow, cyclical and powerful.”
