Sonica Raydale Dower The Eye of the Duck

The Eye of the Duck is a new installation by Scottish visual artist Raydale Dower exploring the sonic form, spatial composition and duration. The title The Eye of the Duck references the ideas and work of the cult film director David Lynch. In re-creating an iconic set from the director’s oeuvre, the installation also acknowledges Lynch’s long-standing musical collaboration with the composer Angelo Badalamenti.

Dower's work has quoted from the theatre of the absurd, dada, surrealism and the anarchic impulse present within Fluxus and contemporary music composition. This installation is a continued exploration of these influences.

A Cryptic Nights commission for Sonica 2013.
