Bernard Aubouy

Born in 1939 in Nîmes, France, this artist is renowned for a distinguished engagement with sound as a medium for expression. Growing up in the Gard region, they developed a sensitivity to acoustics and environments, shaping a practice that traverses listening, observation, and creation. Their work often investigates the subtle textures of soundscapes, incorporating natural and urban stimuli to reveal the relationships between space, duration, and perception. Through collaborations, installations, and explorations of immersive listening, they have contributed to a broader conversation about hearing, memory, and the phenomenology of sound. Their ongoing practice emphasizes attentive listening as a method of inquiry and articulation.
