Staring at the Bin Swiss Edition at Museum Tinguely, Basel
Sousveillance
Staring at the Bin — Swiss Edition
by Meriel Price, curated by Isabel Piniella Grillet, performed by SoundTrieb
21 February – 26 March 2023 Museum Tinguely, Basel
In dialogue with the exhibition À bruit secret, the artist and composer Meriel Price presents a video series of subtle and fleeting miniature performances in public space. Viewers are witnesses to a choreographed, anarchistic infiltration of surveillance that unfolds acoustically as well as performatively.
A companion publication is planned for March 2023 with essays addressing the exhibition’s framework as well as bringing Price’s work into dialogue with Tinguely’s understanding of daily soundscapes, rhythm and movement.
