C. Lavender

At EMS 31 March–4 April

C. Lavender (Lavender Suarez) is an interdisciplinary sound artist, sound healing practitioner, and educator based in New York City. Her work spans through live performance, recording, installations, compositions, videos and workshops. She creates immersive aural landscapes for listeners; experiences which are intensely physical, emotional, and ultimately cathartic. She is the author of the book “Transcendent Waves: How Listening Shapes Our Creative Lives” (Anthology Editions), which delves into how listening can be a powerful source of inspiration for any creative endeavor. C. Lavender has performed, lectured, and hosted workshops at MoMA, The Whitney, The Guggenheim, Hirshhorn Museum, The Rubin Museum, Museum of the Moving Image, Fridman Gallery, and Cafe Oto, among other venues. She has albums and recordings featured on the labels Editions Mego, Ecstatic Peace! and RVNG Intl. Her latest full length album “Rupture in the Eternal Realm,” (iDEAL Recordings) explores her varied meditative practices through the use of Buchla synthesizer, gongs and field recordings.
