Menter, Will

Always Sound

WILL MENTER has released a series of four solo CDs that juxtapose the sounds of his sculptures with recorded natural sounds and instrumental music. His fi fth CD, Song Sculptures (2004) was a series of songs written for the voice of Sianed Jones together with eight of Wills sculptures, percussion and double bass. More recently he has been developing collaborations with dancers Aurore Gruel and Mure Natale, and with ceramicist Jane Norbury with whom he has developed many of his sound sculptures and performances. In December 2007 Will published a book of photos and texts with an accompanying CD, called Bits of Wood. He is currently working on the sequel to that, consisting of 3 audio CDs and a 200 page book, entitled "Always Sound". Perhaps the overall development in his work is a gradual move away from the idea of projecting music to an audience, towards the idea of inviting people to share and explore a sensory experience.
