Mark Brown
Multimedia artist, Mark Brown makes in situ installations as well as photographs, and works with sounds to explore the phenomenology of space, architecture and acoustic atmospheres. His approach evolves into a poetic relationship with the site. Thus, the artist is giving a critique of the history and function of architecture, while documenting and revealing invisible phenomena.
