about

Andy and Kimbal’s collaboration takes the form of an audio and print work. Starting from their shared love of landscape, field recordings and chance-operations in the creative process they began by taking a walk around their respective locales (in Halifax and York) simultaneously. The walks were documented through audio recordings and a linear trace of the route. They shared the results and used the other’s documentation as a guide for a further pair of walks - like the game ‘consequences’. This process was repeated four times in total. Andy and Kimbal then got together to jam with the audio recordings using sampling and sequencing equipment, and created an image by layering up the routes they had taken. The resulting 15-minute audio piece and print captures a process of local exploration, deep listening, being together-apart and collaborating over distance that reflects some of the artistic tools of the lockdown era.

Andy and Kimbal will be performing their collaborative sound piece live during the opening reception of the exhibition on the 30th July.

Kimbal Bumstead’s art practice stems from his background in participatory performance art and his fascination with maps. His work explores ideas around imagining and “re-imagining” landscapes, and abstraction as a form of storytelling. He works across a broad range of media and disciplines including painting, drawing, video, performance and sound, sometimes on their own and sometimes in conjunction with each other. Originally from London, Kimbal studied Fine Art at the University of Leeds (2008), followed by a Masters in Performance and Theatre from Queen Mary University of London (2010). He has exhibited and performed internationally and currently lives and works in York.
