Natasha Anderson is a Melbourne musician and installation artist who creates works in which the source of sounds, images and gestures - whether electronic, instrumental or bodily - become tangled and confused.
Variously using the contrabass recorder, electronics and mixed media she is interested in creating works that foreground the musician as a framed and gendered bodily presence. Rapidly shifting between extreme frequencies, between digital and acoustic sound, and abject and processed gestures, she creates for the audience multiple and conflicting points of focus.
Working across Australasia and Europe as a performer, composer, sound designer and installation artist, Natasha’s recent endeavors include composition and sound design for Sydney Theatre Company’s The Year of Magical Thinking (dir. Cate Blanchett); composition and sound installation for Carriagework’s site specific The Stirring (prod. De Quincey Co); performances at the French festivals Musique Action and Festival de Musiques Innovatrices; and gigs at the MIBEM08, Liquid Architecture, NowNow, Melbourne International Arts Festival and Alt.Music, Auckland.
She plays regularly with well-known Australian improvisers Amanda Stewart, Anthony Pateras, Robin Fox and Jim Denley and has a solo release on Cajid Media, Spore.
