Invisible Forces: Sound, Matter, and Territory

This lecture provides an overview of my artistic practice, with a focus on the relationship between sound, matter, and perception. Through the selection of specific works, I will share my creative process and demonstrate how sound can act as a physical force that shapes materials, space, and experience.

The talk will also present insights from my recent research at CERN and my ongoing work in the Gran Chaco, where art intersects with environmental and territorial concerns.

JUAN SORRENTINO

Juan Sorrentino is an Argentinian sound artist, experimental musician, and lecturer based in Buenos Aires. His work explores sound as a physical force that interacts with materials, space and perception. He often works with low and sub-low frequencies, as well as natural elements such as wood, ash, dust, and metal, through installations, sculptures, and audiovisual works.

His practice is deeply connected to environmental questions, particularly in the Gran Chaco region, where he runs MONTE, an artist residency programme focusing on art, ecology and territory. His work has been presented internationally in museums and institutions across Europe and Latin America.

In 2025, he was awarded a residency at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research), where he conducts research at the intersection of sound, science and invisible phenomena.
