Blake Carringtion (b. 1980) operates within the spheres of the visual, sound, and performing arts. His work in all of these forms displays a minimal aesthetic and finds resonance with the graphic sign systems of architectural plans and other minimal spatial representations. This year he completed a commission for Radio del Museo Reina Sofia in Madrid, performed in the River to River Festival in New York, and has recently been artist-in-residence at LMCC's Swing Space on Governors Island and at Haeinsa Temple in South Korea. Last year he received a NYSCA grant in support of his debut CD release concert at the Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral in New York. He has also completed residencies at HIAP in Helsinki, Atlantic Center for the Arts in Florida, and Rustines Lab in Montreal. In Syracuse NY he co-founded the platform for outdoor projections called Urban Video Project, and in 2010 co-curated a series for UVP featuring Trevor Paglen, Jill Magid, Thomson & Craighead, Miranda Lichtenstein and Jaume Ferrete. His print series Loci_, exploring the questionable translation of field recordings to abstract landscape imagery, is in The Drawing Center's Viewing Program in New York. Blake was born in Indiana and currently lives and works in Brooklyn.
