Dressing The Air is the brainchild of the London-based artist Paul Schütze.

In a career spanning 30 years, Schütze has exhibited his photographic and installation works in galleries and museums around the world, released over thirty albums of original recordings, scored a number of films and performed numerous concerts. He has collaborated with artists such as James Turrell, Josiah McElheny and Isaac Julien and musicians as diverse as Bill Laswell, Raoul Björkenheim, Toshinori Kondo, Lol Coxhill and Jah Wobble.

Dressing The Air is a unique open resource that aims to enrich creative thinking by encouraging a multi-sensory approach. A constantly evolving archive and creative news feed, Dressing The Air monitors and reports on a diverse range of art-forms from cinema to sculpture, painting to furniture design, land-art to perfumery.

Sound Mirrors

An installation combining sculptural elements and field-recordings to articulate the presentation of sound-scapes with the exhibition space. The focusing and reflective qualities of concave discs are used to "locate" and diffuse sound throughout the space. In this way the active movement of the listener is rewarded.  As so much of our listening is physically passive, with sound generally delivered to our bodies, it is stimulating to re-engage the whole body in the pursuit of audition. Until the 23rd of November.

"Here again, the colour was applied by Dandrillon, who had mixed his paints with the fragrances of violet, jasmine and rose."
- Jean François de Bastide, 1879, The Little House
