ABOUT
Ruby Tingle is an award winning audiovisual artist and performer represented by No Such Thing Records and PAPER Gallery. Her practice is concerned with the reconstruction of familiar forms and presenting the extraordinary as authentic. Expanded collage spans performance, installation, sound, work on paper and interventions with museum collections. A fascination with water, wetlands habitat and herpetology roots her material and conceptual investigation, with an aim to present unnatural histories, dreamworlds and new myths which blur the lines between science and cryptozoology. Tingle's music mixes elements of natural sound, high range celestial vocals and electronica to produce romantic and dreamy, experimental 'music from the swamp'

Reviews
'Totally Mesmerising... beautifully complex music... it's electronica with a soul' LOCAL SOUND FOCUS
'Let the watery ambience soak through you can you will find yourself singing the chorus in the shower for weeks' LOUDER THAN WAR
'Soaring beat-driven melody puncturing the shadowy darkness…Songs of moody soulful blues, urban beats and atmospheric electronics..Narratives spinning the kind of themes that stalk the expansive swamp lands of Mississippi and New Orleans, love, hope and betrayal or death, murder and loss’
