Geoffrey Farmer
Vancouver, Canada.
In the early 1960s English mathematician Ian Sommerville and Canadian mystic poet Brion Gysin devised a stroboscopic machine capable of inducing hallucinatory visions to those who sat near it with their eyes closed.
Enter the beautiful setting of The Church of the Holy Trinity and sit down. A soundtrack composed by Geoffrey Farmer and performed on the rich and powerful organ that inhabits the Church will accompany your experience. Close your eyes. Open your ears.
Geoffrey Farmer lives and works in Vancouver. Recent exhibitions include a survey exhibition at the Musée d'art contemporain in Montréal, a solo exhibition at the Witte de With in Rotterdam, Netherlands, participated in the Sydney and Brussels Biennale as well as in group exhibitions at the Tate Modern, the ICA Boston and Johnen Gallery in Berlin.
