Artist statement

Sebastian Six is a multidisciplinary Artist. Acoustic experiments, sculptural assemblages, procedural interventions and the physical component of sound are the central elements of his musical and visual compositions. In his artistic works, small interventions often trigger processes whose outcome cannot always be certain. In addition, he focuses his acoustic and artistic performances on the different ways of creating sounds. This ranges from everyday objects to self-made instruments. In this way he creates filigree improvised music that oscillates between experiment, session and concept.
Since 2004, he works together with Clemens Mairhofer, Lucas Norer in the artist collective FAXEN furthermore he is co-founder of the artist-run-gallery bb15 in Linz.
