Since 2005 Simon Whetham has been exploring aspects of sound as a material for creation, unearthing obscured environmental sonic phenomena, acoustics and resonance, sonic energy and transduction. His projects are increasingly multi-disciplinary, becoming more visual, performative and tangible, exploring physical sound traces and transforming energy forms.
Whetham participates in various international artist residencies, and performs and exhibits internationally, presenting works in MA/IN Festival 2022 (IT), MFRU 2022 (SI), NEXT Festival 2021 (SK), Electric Spring 2020 (UK), In Vitrø 2019 (IT), Fresh Winds Biennale 2018 & 2016 (IS), Nakanojo Biennale 2017 (JP), Tsonami Festival 2017 & 2012 (CL), Tsukuba Art Center 2014, 2015 and 2016 (JP), Madeiradig 2010 & 2011 (PT) and Moers Festival 2011 (DE).
Published works have been released through Kohlhaas, Line, Crónica, Misanthropic Agenda and Falt.
