Artist Camille Norment will be giving a lecture in the Abby and Howard Milstein Auditorium, Millstein Hall, on Wednesday, October 9, at 5:15 PM. This lecture is being co-sponsored by PMA and Art, and is the first in the Black Sound Series organized by Mendi Obadike and Keith Obadike.
Sound is a physical force that connects everything in its omnidirectional path through expanding waveforms of energy that touch and move through all. Similarly, Camille Norment's work utilizes sonic perspectives to simultaneously navigate through various concepts and art forms, including installation, performance, drawing, sculpture, and composition, into unified wholes. In this presentation, Norment will offer insight into this expansive approach to her art and music practice through the dynamic framework of "cultural psychoacoustics."
In favor of aesthetic experience, the lecture will incorporate performance, image, speech, sound, and music.
The work of multimedia artist Camille Norment is internationally renowned in both contemporary art and music.
