Kathy Hinde’s interdisciplinary approach combines different art forms frequently through collaborations with other practitioners, partnerships with scientists, and input from the audience. She has made work for concert halls, theaters, and galleries alongside site specific work for outdoor locations and unusual indoor spaces. She has shown work across Europe, Scandinavia, China, Pakistan, USA, Colombia and Brazil.
Kathy’s music and visual art grows from a partnership between nature and technology. Often using adapted, or self-made instruments, she works with open scores, graphic scores and chance procedures to create a framework within which the work evolves. Her video work frequently moves away from the screen, including site-specific public projections. She has created a number of works combining kinetic sculpture with musical automata, online participatory sound-mapping pieces and site specific installations.
Previous and current collaborators are many and include: Joanna MacGregor, Maja Ratkje, Gabriel Prokofiev, Joby Burgess and composer Will Gregory of the duo Goldfrapp by creating video projections for Gregory’s new Opera “Piccard in Space” directed by Jude Kelly at the South Bank Centre, London.
Following a TEDx presentation at Aldeburgh Music in 2011, Kathy was invited to give a talk and demonstration at TEDGlobal in Edinburgh in June 2012.
Kathy has worked in a variety of educational settings having facilitated projects with participants ranging from age 3 to over 80 working with organisations such as Aldeburgh Music, Bedford Creative Arts, Bath International Music Festival, and London Sinfonietta.
