Philippe Neau

Philippe Neau, born in 1970, lives and works in Mayenne.
All my work tries to shape an imaginary landscape. Paintings, installations, films and music are an attempt to create this “place”, a place of the order of the “mental landscape”. My music would like to summon these imaginary spaces through a non-narrative form. It is made of deaf field-recordings,
organic sound collages, abstract notes, sometimes rumbling glitches, atonal melodies, metallic textures and distant voices. The atmosphere can be dense. The sound palette is contrasting and plays with shades between “dog and wolf”. The sounds swell. It envelops “the listener/viewer”. These soundscapes take him into a “full sound” and plunge him into the experience of an intriguing sound place.
