For Project 20, Stephen Vitiello’s multi-channel sound installation, The Sound of Red Earth, was installed in the historic Brickworks in Sydney Park. The result of extensive recordings captured by the artist throughout the Kimberley region in Western Australia, the work mixed dust-filled winds, the roar of waterfalls, the rush of tidal flows and the sounds of native wildlife. Resonating with sound and light, the old brick-making kilns were transformed into three immersive environments, evoking the remote Australian landscape.
