Peter Kutin works with sound and its compositional possibilities at various intersections. His non-disciplinary works are characterised by blending music with image, sculpture, light, kinetic art or video.
This in-depth exploration of how sound and visual stimuli interdepend and interact with has expanded his artistic territory far beyond music, resulting in a body of experimental films, multimedia-scenarios, kinetic sculptures and stage-performances. Kutin received numerous awards, scholarships and residencies. In 2019, his kinetic sound-sculpture Torso#1 was honoured with the Prix Ars-Electronica. In 2016, along with the composer Christina Kubisch and his long time collaborator Florian Kindlinger, he received SWR’s esteemed Karl-Szucka award for the composition Desert Bloom. He is currently based in Brussels as Artist in Residence at the WIELS center for contemporary art.
