about
The work of Lasse-Marc Riek (1975, Bad Segeberg,Germany) is an assemblage of the most diverse styles and techniques. His interdisciplinary productions are shaped by elements of the fine arts, environmentalism, performance, sound-art and conceptual art. These productions are situated in a tight relationship with one another. They complement and enrich one another - just like human beings, created by nature, find themselves in an ongoing process of change and are part of the eternal becoming and fading. In the domain of soundscapes he focus rests on acoustic ecology and bio-acoustics by means of field recordings of both society and nature. His music, recorded with a microphone, is brought about by coincidence and the immediate presence of nature, society and animals. In his quest after the archaic sound Rike collaborates with scientists, ecologists and musicians. Since 1996: Various sound-publications on different labels. Since 1999: Concerts, performances, installations in museums, galeries, cathedrals and off-spaces across Europe. Since 2000: Symposia / artist in residence / scholarships / exhibitions and acoustic field studies in Germany, Finland, Bosnia & Herzegovina, France, Greece, England, Poland and Africa. Since 2003: Co-founder of the label Gruenrekorder: reservoir for sound-artists specialised on soundscapes and field recordings. Since 2006: Audio-lectures at universities and art schools, e.g. at the Hamburg University / Institutes for Theology and Music Studi
