About the artist:
John Roach is a Queens-based artist and educator whose work is concerned with the often slippery role of sound in how we perceive the world. His most recent projects have explored the ability of sound to construct immersive portraits of places, and how the careful assembly of spatialized field recordings, sound design elements, and voices can connect a listener to unexpected impressions of a landscape or soundscape. Roach received his MFA from Hunter College. His work has been exhibited at Urban Glass, Parkers Box, Flux Factory, NARS, Local Project, Leslie Heller Gallery in New York; The Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, GlazenHuis in Lommel, Belgium; and The RMIT Gallery in Melbourne, Australia. He has completed residencies at Zion National Park in Utah; Triangle Artist Workshop in Salem, New York; Pilchuck Glass School in Stanwood, Washington; Tacoma Museum of Glass; Uncommon Arts Residency in Jackson Wyoming; NARS Foundation in Brooklyn, New York; The Ionion Center for Art and Culture in Kefalonia Greece; and Marble House Project in Dorset Vermont. As an educator Roach teaches at Parsons School of Design and has taught workshops at Urban Glass and Pilchuck Glass School.
