A note from Lawrence English...
Beatriz Ferreyra is a sonic world builder.
For six decades she has been responsible for the creation of works that inhabit a place between the living world and the subliminal zones of the unconscious. Her compositions forge new realities, constructed piece by piece, from fragments of places and things we know, reedited and refocused to create something few of us might even imagine possible.
Ferreyra’s life in sound has transcended from the analogue to the digital and back again. She is equally at home with tape manipulation as she is with digital transformations and it is this sense of material agnosticism which has lent her work such a personal quality. She pursues sound in the absolute, and allows it to guide her curiosity.
A Distracted God collects three works from Ferreyra, each one a microcosm of listenership that speaks to her wholly consuming practice in sound. The edition takes in both tape and computer based works, which reveal the very particular ways within which Ferreyra has explored and shaped sound. She remains one of the true pioneers of her generation, a fearless and relentless maker for whom the totality of sound’s affect is forever front of mind.
