Jez Riley French – 14 March 2012

Using intuitive composition, field recording, improvisation and photography, Jez has been exploring his enjoyment of detail, simplicity and his emotive response to places and situations for the past 3 decades.

Alongside solo performances and exhibitions he collaborates with other artists, runs the ‘in place’ project on field recording – a subject on which he also lectures & tutors on the regular ‘Wildeye’ location sound courses, organizes the ‘seeds & bridges’ event series and curates the engraved glass, . point engraved & a quiet position labels.

During 2011 Jez was artist in residence with organisations in Korea, Japan, Italy, Belgium, Czech Republic and Portugal.

In recent years Jez has been working extensively on recordings of surfaces and spaces (natural and man made) and has also been developing the concept of photographic scores.
