Basement Bass - 2011

Materials: wood, bass speaker drivers with amplifiers, sound

Dimensions: floor is approximately 19’ x 14’ x 0.5' (w x l x h)

Basement Bass is part of the solo exhibition Rooms at Oakville Galleries Gairloch Gardens exhibition space, a site-related collection of works.

In the basement right below this gallery there is a room almost identical in shape and size. Basement Bass has no scale or ratio change but rather draws your attention to the similarity of the rooms through the floor: it’s as if the basement floor is brought up into this gallery. The floor acts as a sounding board for a collage of recordings made in the basement, played through bass speaker drivers.
