Luc Messinezis was born in Athens, Greece in 1977. After relocating in the UK, he achieved a MA in Sound Arts at the University of the Arts, London and since, he has engaged with sound arts practice professionally, developing several projects that explore the means throughout which sound can constitute the main medium for artistic expression. Phonography, electro-acoustic/concrete composition, performance, audio-visual works and sound installations are a few of the ways Luc uses to explore the attributes of sound and its aesthetic/acousmatic qualities within a contemporary art context. Luc’s conceptual interests mainly focus in triggering feelings, aural awareness, and memory by challenging perception and stimulating the imagination of the audience, using the concrete audible world as his sound palette. He was recently awarded with an artist’s residency in the lower Austria region and his latest work has been presented in various venues and galleries around the world in countries such as England, Greece and Israel. |
