Boleskine comprises an unfolding set of sound recordings made over a three-mile stretch of General Wade’s Military Road set on the south-east shore of Loch Ness. Scattered throughout the luminous countryside are memorial stones, burial ground, and various ruins indicating a long and troubled history. Boleskine situates the metaphysical alongside the prosaic to offer an encounter with a place of curiosity, imbued with atmosphere and shrouded by intrigue.

His art practice is based on deep fieldwork where he deploys complex sound recording technology to capture natural, anthropogenic and geophysical forces. The recordings are used within various exhibition, performance and publication outcomes to demonstrate the transformative effects of sound within a fine art context. He is particularly interested in concepts of perception, immersion and embodiment in order to provide audiences with sophisticated encounters of space and place.
