MP Hopkins

About

MP Hopkins is an artist working on Gadigal and Wangal land in Sydney, Australia who makes audio, performance, radiophonic, and textual works. He uses voice, feedback, recording/playback devices, and text scores within different acoustic environments, which are deconstructed and presented to the listener in delicate and degraded ways.

Hopkins has released recordings with Penultimate Press, Canti Magnetici, Tahalamos, Albert’s Basement, Mappa Editions, Aussenraum Records and Regional Bears. He has performed locally at events organised by the NOW now, Liquid Architecture, Avantwhatever, and The Make it Up Club. International appearances include Café Oto, UK; LaSalle College of the Arts, Singapore; Les Ateliers Claus, Belgium; TUSK Festival, UK; and Colour Out of Space Festival, UK. Hopkins works with Renato Grieco, Alexandra Spence, and plays in the band Warm Currency with Mary MacDougall.

He has exhibited work in spaces such as Firstdraft Gallery, 55 Sydenham Rd Gallery, Knulp, Artspace, Casula Arts Centre, Penrith Regional Gallery, the MCA, SCA Galleries, Private Projects, Gertrude Contemporary, Margaret Lawrence Gallery, and TCB Gallery.
