ROBERT COLEMAN
Turrell says of his own work that it has “no object, no image and no focus”.
'How many sides do you see?' is a 5 movement site specific composition which takes Turrell's concepts and merges it with my own research. Using data from a daylight spectrum as a starting point, various musical objects were composed and then dispersed around the site, representing the movement of the sun across the sky.
Dublin born composer Robert Coleman is previous graduate of the UCD Dublin School of Architecture and the Royal Irish Academy of Music. He is currenlty finishing his masters under Yannis Kyriakides and Diderik Wagenaar at the Hague, where his current research focuses on the use of musical object and combining architectural idioms within a musical context.
He is a founding member and artistic advisor of the Dublin based new music group Kirkos, who have premiered over 150 works to date by Irish composers, and commissioned many of Ireland’s most prominent and emerging talents.
