Lawrence English + Margaret Hermant

Lawrence English Lawrence English is an Australian artist, composer, and curator whose work sits at the crossroads of sound experimentation, performance, and installation. His practice questions notions of perception, memory, and space, exploring sound as a physical and sensory experience. Through immersive performances and site-specific works, Lawrence English develops an approach where listening becomes a conscious act, tied to the body and the environment. His work invites us to rethink our relationship to sound, place, and presence. A major figure in contemporary sound creation, he has established himself over the years through a demanding and singular body of work, praised both for its artistic scope and for its reflection on the sensory and transformative dimensions of sound. Margaret Hermant Margaret Hermant is a violinist, harpist, and composer based in Brussels, as well as a founding member of Echo Collective. Her work evolves at the crossroads of contemporary, post-classical, and experimental music. Over the years, she has collaborated with numerous major figures of the neoclassical and ambient scene, while developing a singular voice as a composer. Her music, blending harp, violin, and subtle electronic treatments, ranges from concerts to creations for cinema, dance, theater, and installation. With her album Freedom, Margaret Hermant asserts a profoundly cinematographic writing, where acoustic instrumentation and electronic textures converse with finesse. Between composition, performance, and interdisciplinary creation, she builds a sensitive and immersive body of work, driven by a approach that is both delicate and bold.
