Chris Watson is a renowned sound recordist, i would call him an sound artist. In 2015 the National Gallery held a summer exhibit titled ‘Soundscapes‘, in which musicians and sound artists were commissioned to select a painting in the collection and create a work in response. The result gave visitors the chance to both see and hear the selected works. Chris Watson created his work in response to the modern Finnish painter Akseli Gallen-Kallela’s painting ‘Lake Keitele’.
