Another great line-up from the Infant Tree label, featuring Ontario experimental artist, Shadow Pattern, Leeds-based artist, Anna Peaker, Philadelphia based multidisciplinary practitioner and alchemist, Jordan Deal, and multimedia artist, Paola Lesina.
Long standing member of the Hamilton, Ontario experimental scene, Shadow Pattern is Ivanco's latest reinvention of himself through recording and performance. Several small edition cassettes on Hamilton Tapes and an LP on Radiant Clay Records (RCR) Shadow Pattern entertains the artfully careless and outright absurd idea of what sound can be.
Anna Peaker is an artist based in Leeds, West Yorkshire who began experimenting with sound in 2016. Her work centers around quiet electronics, organ pieces, and found sound. She has released music with Longform Editions, Alter, Infant Tree, and Lime Lodge.
Jordan Deal, also known as ROSEKILLJUPITER, is a Philadelphia based multidisciplinary practitioner and alchemist. Their investigative practice uses performance, sound, and image as a conduit between unseen forces and the materializations of socio-political structures. Through the use of collected field recordings, video/film documenta, and real-time autobiographical myth fabrication, Deal explores dialectics, borders and territories, blackness as creative de/construction, and travail secret passageways that erupt through floorboards [in tongue] into whispers & mournings to the undeaddead.
Their last album, ˆGOGO UNDERWORLD, was released in 2022 with Cor Ardens featuring Deal combing through waste streams of aural debris, calling in warnings of the wild global West, and ghostly mirages from past and future.
Deal has shown work with the Center for Performance Research, Brick Theater, Protocinema & Protodispatch, Fleisher-Ollman gallery, Vox Populi, Fleisher Art Memorial, Grizzly Grizzly (PHIL), Bartram’s Gardens, No Tomorrow Underground, amongst others. They have been included in press such as the ARTNews, ArtBlog, Titled House Review Spring 2021 issue and Grizzly Grizzly: In Dialogue.
