Riah Naief

Riah is a sound artist and runs Listen Gallery, a sound arts gallery and communal listening space in Glasgow. The theory and practice of listening is at the root of their practice. Sonic experimentation within the cultural sector is growing, evolving, and adapting in response to interaction and participation, Listen Gallery offers the context for this exploration to continue. Sound arts thus become an access point for listening as an activity, in which a shared process of education allows people to discover personal, artistic and scientific insights. Listening becomes a revolutionary act, a way to shape and change behaviours and society.
