The strongest presence in Tacita Dean’s exhibition ‘Foley Artist’ isn’t something you can see - it’s sound. In the Minimalist expanse of the gallery, eight discreetly placed speakers transmit eerily clear, but fractured, evocations of sea, storms, Shakespeare, romance and dark alleys. A small video monitor makes it apparent, however, that the noises aren’t ‘natural’ but generated by two middle-aged people in a studio. They are foley artists, and their job is to simulate sounds for the post-production of films.
