Mark Peter Wright is an artist, writer and self-described “suspicious listener”. His practice combines performance, installation and publishing to explore the poetics and politics of sound and listening. Working in the traditions of documentary and site-based research, he explores the relationship between sound recording, ethics and artmaking through interventions and actions that produce a critically playful approach to field encounters. He has exhibited and performed internationally and published widely across a variety of analogue and digital formats. His monograph, Listening After Nature: Field Recording, Ecology, Critical Practice is published by Bloomsbury (2023).
