The MAC Gallery presents acclaimed nature sound recordist Nick McMahan’s curated soundscape, "A Year of Sound Across the Pacific Northwest," in The Grove Recital Hall. Over the course of 30 minutes, his composition orchestrates the breathtaking diversity in natural sounds throughout the seasons.
The piece seamlessly loops back to the start, allowing participants to drop in at any point in the presentation.
The soundscape will play from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 5. The reception for the MAC Gallery exhibit, "Seen: Figure Studies by Student Artists," will be from 5 to 7:30 p.m.
Nick McMahan is a nature field recordist based in Washington State. His work, capturing the sounds of nature, is complemented by his photography and storytelling. Drawn to nature as a source of solace and connection, Nick believes that understanding the natural world is essential to humanity's survival. Communities who closely rely on nature reflect the deep relationship we must foster with the environment.
