Z-Arts is pleased to offer this free community presentation by John Roach, Sound Artist and Zion National Park’s February Artist-in-Residence.
John will present his work this Saturday, February 26, 2022 at 7:30 pm at the Canyon Community Center, located at 126 Lion Blvd., Springdale.
Join John as he talks about preservation and ecology from a different perspective–Soundscapes. John, a sound artist, has been documenting Zion’s soundscape by recording many natural and human-made elements that are the park today. He has trekked through Zion’s seemingly quieter areas recording rocks, water, plants, wildlife, and people to tell their stories.
John Roach is a professor at Parsons School of Design in New York City, who’s classes address the aesthetic, spatial, emotional, psychological and political impact of sound. His work has been exhibited internationally.
