In this talk, SSAC faculty member Jesse Stewart will discuss some of his recent work in (and between) the visual and sonic arts. He will focus in particular on his 2015 residency at the Diefenbunker, a decommissioned underground military bunker outside of Ottawa, and on The Listening Tree, a 2016 public sound sculpture by Mixed Metaphors (a creative partnership with Matt Edwards).
