Artist statement:

"This is a live performance of me attempting to sound like an underwater field recording of a creek. It incorporates a tub of water, a straw, nails, beads, bird horns, a whisk, steel wool, a small branch, rocks, a hollow log, a small drum and a zither.
I have spent many years recording waterways, and here I thought to try and sound like one, emulating the snap of shrimp, the grunting of fish, and the mysterious rustles and groans I so often have enjoyed listening to underwater. - Kate Carr.
-------------------------------
Fake Creek was performed twice in 2021 at Cafe Oto and 100 years gallery. Thanks to Viv Corringham, David Toop, Phil Maguire, Matt Atkins and Prof LoFi who I shared a stage with on those occasions."

Review by Brad Rose, FOXY DIGITALIS:

"Varying creaks and trickles bubble up like the song of a decaying shipwreck with Carr weaving in metallic chimes and echoing bird calls to add strange signs of life. It’s eerie at times, but there’s a surprise peacefulness to fake creek that keeps me returning to its aqueous dimensions. Carr does an amazing job of capturing the beautiful underwater spookiness that has always drawn me underwater. Wonderful."
