Burhlap is London based musician, artist and technician Ben Victor Waggett. 'Heyl Towans' (2022) relased on Infant Tree, was assembled around a damp and drafty cabin in the sand dunes of Hayle, West Cornwall, where he sometimes works and shows, with previous projects presented at Hweg Gallery Penzance, Lewisham Arthouse, Cornwall Community Darkroom, PINK, Van Gogh House, Spanners and The San Mei Gallery amongst others.
Willow Swan (they/them) is a sound artist based in London. Their work centers on long-form composition, acoustic phenomena, and the durational possibilities of drone. Working primarily with pipe organ, field recordings, and minimal processing, Swan explores harmonic instability, resonance, and texture through restrained, process-driven structures
Ellis Berwick (he/him) is an artist, engineer and musician from London (UK), who unites all three disciplines in his sculptural practise. Inspired by the effect of monumental public sculpture, simultaneously ignored and mythologised, Berwick works with heritage musical instrument parts through assemblage and automation to explore their enduring symbolic and sonic power.
