Louise Van Tassel
Duration
Louise is a sound and performance artist based in Glasgow. Inspired by pop, noise, punk and opera, she makes musically infused absurdist theatre. In her most recent projects, she has explored ways to talk about/fight against imposed silences and selective erasures of history. She likes to work with other humans, machines, field recordings, inanimate objects (or are they?). Things that already contain truths, which can talk to one another.
Cove Park is pleased to expand its valued partnership with the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland by offering a dedicated group residency in 2024 and 2025 for all graduating students of the Contemporary Performance Practice (CPP) programme. This initiative reflects Cove Park’s ongoing commitment to nurturing emerging talent in the performing arts.
From 2021-2023, Cove Park supported one recent CPP graduate each summer, providing space and time for creative development. Past residents include Sally Charlton, Nell O’Hara, and Margot Conde Arenas. The group residency marks a significant evolution of this partnership, offering a collaborative opportunity for the 2024 and 2025 cohorts to further their artistic practice in a supportive and inspiring environment.
This residency underscores Cove Park’s aims to support the next generation of artists at a pivotal stage in their careers.
