Everyday electronic objects of commercial technology and communications assume new roles in the installations of Adam Basanta, taking on sculptural forms. In聽Curtain (white) the ubiquitous white earbud headphones become a three metre-long array, generating white noise patterns. Basanta was a longliste for the Sobey Art Award, Canada. He was the winner of the Prix Pierre Ayot 2019. He has exhibited work in the National Art Centre, Tokyo.
