Jose Macabra Presents #14 - Wajid Yaseen Retrospective

Jose Macabra presents solo work and other collaborations.

Wajid Yaseen is a Manchester-born, London-based artist whose work draws on an inter-disciplinary approach to develop sound-based works encompassing installations, live performances, acousmatic music, graphic scores, and sound sculptures.

He is the director of the sound art research cooperative Modus Arts, the co-founder of the destructivist Scrapclub project, and director of the Ear Cinema project. His early career as a music producer led him to be signed to Mute Records, Planet Mu and Ad Noiseam, paving the way for collaborations with i.a. Lydia Lunch, Alan Vega, Dälek, Terry Edwards, and Franko B. Delving into inter-disciplinary practices, he has worked with a number of contemporary dance groups and choreographers such as Candoco, Athina Vahla, and Mara Castilho.

He holds an MA in Arts and Design with a focus on Sonic Arts, and his work has been exhibited and performed at the ICA Gallery, Arnolfini, Queen Elizabeth Hall, the Whitechapel Gallery, Laban, and the Freud Museum.
