Sound -- Artist, Healing Practitioner, Educator
Bio:
C. Lavender (Lavender Suarez) is an interdisciplinary sound artist, sound healing practitioner, and educator based in New York City.
She is the author of "Transcendent Waves: How Listening Shapes Our Creative Lives," a contemplative artist’s workbook that explores how listening can spark creativity, foster self-awareness, and cultivate mindfulness.
Bandcamp describes her music as having "curative powers," yet also being confrontational, "primed to change you whether or not you want it to."
In 2022, she premiered "Oneness," a meditative spatial audio composition created for a 192-speaker Wave Field Synthesis system at A+E Lab in England with support from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts.
C. Lavender has held three pivotal roles that closely align with her artistic practice: she served as the first sound design educator at the Museum of the Moving Image (NYC), managed the studio and archive of one of the largest private vintage synthesizer collections in the U.S., and assisted the late “Deep Listening” composer Pauline Oliveros.
C. Lavender has performed, lectured, and hosted workshops at MoMA, The Whitney, The Guggenheim, Hirshhorn Museum, The Rubin Museum, The Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Fridman Gallery, Cafe Oto, and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, among other venues.
She has been an artist-in-residence at Sonic Acts (Amsterdam, NL), Elektronmusikstudion (EMS) (Stockholm, SE), Wave Farm (Acra, NY), Pioneer Works (NYC), Harvestworks (NYC), Kurimanzutto Gallery (NYC), and A+E Lab (Chatham, UK).
C. Lavender's music can be found on the labels Editions Mego, iDEAL Recordings, Ecstatic Peace!, and RVNG Intl among others.
