Sonia Leber and David Chesworth are a Melbourne-based collaborative duo that work across sound, video and installation art. Through their practice they develop new possibilities for the creative use of sound in cross-disciplinary environments, often transforming public sites into zones of exploration and discovery with visitors left to navigate their way through the physical space and the dense compositions of sonic elements. Leber and Chesworth's recent solo exhibitions include Space-Shifter, Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts, 2011; Richter/Meinhof- Opera, Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne, 2010; and Space-Shifter, Conical Inc, Melbourne 2009. Recent group exhibitions include Stealing the Senses, Govett-Brewster Gallery, New Zealand, 2011 and In camera and in public, Centre for Contemporary Photography, Melbourne, 2011. Their large sound and structural installation, Almost Always Everywhere Apparent, was a major solo exhibition at Australian Centre for Contemporary Art in 2007.
