About
Angela Guyton is a Colombian-American artist residing in Manchester, England. Her artistic practice centers around drawing as improvised performance as well as it being a sound generative experience. She explores the shared space between visual information and sonic information through mark-marking, often times fluctuating between the two as priorities within any given moment during live performances. She currently explores this method as part of Takahashi’s Shellfish Concern, and is pursuing her MA in Contemporary Fine Art from the University of Salford under the supervision of sound artist, Helmut Lemke, and Louise Brookes.
