Trine Struwe is a Danish visual artist who lives and works in Copenhagen (DK). She holds an MA from the Royal College of Arts in London, UK (2020) and a BA from Cooper Union in New York, US and Malmö Art Academy, SE (2016).
The work consists of a site-specific sculpture functioning as a loudspeaker for a generative sound piece developed in collaboration with Susanne Cleworth (XURI). The sound is based on a spectrogram visualisation of my daughter’s irregular breathing during her first night. The composition is continuously generated and never repeats. Drawing on the siren as both a mythological, feminist figure and a warning system, the work examines alarm as a permanent condition. The sculpture acts as a bodily and auditory interface, activating the space through sound and vibration. The work was developed as part of the cross-aesthetic programme 360º.
