As part of Colour Out Of Space festival, Sound Canvas is a playful new sound experience for young children created by artist and early years practitioner, Sophie Cooper.
Children aged 5 and under, along with their grown-ups, are invited to take part in creative activities while enjoying a relaxed and beautifully lit immersive environment accompanied by the music of Raymond Scott and live improvised trombone by Sophie herself. Drop in, Stay and Play!
Sophie Cooper is a sound artist and crucial member of Yorkshire’s far-reaching experimental music scene. Sophie’s practice pivots around new presentations of acoustic instrumentation (primarily the trombone) with electronics, challenging conventions around composition, text placement and performance. In recent years, Sophie has been particularly interested in publicly engaged, site specific, audio work, often in collaboration with visual artists.
Please note: Children must be accompanied by adults at all times.
