The project ‘The Sculptor Speaks’ takes its source from a 1961 tape by British sculptor Barbara Hepworth. Unearthed at the British Library, the tape’s initial purpose was for a pre-recorded talk with slides for the British Council. Every recording is a priori an archival object, which can potentially resound anew through a contemporary carrier, physical or digital. This work addresses the resounding of the archival voice as a transformative practice whose properties consist of changing the original status of the archive with manipulations; translating the archive from analogue to digital; relocating the audio signal in time and space; and as such, re-contextualising the archival document for a new audience. The resounding of Hepworth’s voice broadens the experience and understanding of Barbara Hepworth’s legacy through an aural investigation: voice as sonic documentation.
