About 

Sound Artist / Sound Designer / Field Recordist / Multi disciplinary

Guillaume Rouseré, a French sound artist based in Qatar, is known for his

innovative exploration of the intersection of nature, culture, and history through

his creative works. His diverse portfolio includes exhibitions, sound sculptures,

immersive installations, and sound compositions, gaining recognition across

various venues worldwide.

His art draws deeply from eco-acoustics, emphasizing the relationship between

sound and the environment, and phenomenology, exploring the subjective

experience of sound. Rouseré’s work encapsulates the hidden melodies of

natural landscapes, using sound as a universal language to connect people

worldwide, transcending language barriers, and advocating for environmental

preservation.

Noteworthy exhibitions at UNESCO HQ in Paris, M7 in Doha, and NYC have

solidified his international presence. His pivotal moment arose during the

2018/2019 Artist Residency at the Doha Fire Station, where he created

compelling sound installations inspired by Dhows and introduced the concept

of “Sound Fossil Sculptures.”

His contributions to public art include “Allow Me…,” a commissioned piece commemorating the 3rd year anniversary of the

blockade of Qatar, prominently displayed at the central metro station Msheireb.

In September 2022, Guillaume unveiled “The World as We Know It is Changing,” an immersive quadraphonic sound installation at

the Mathaf Museum of Modern Art in Doha. This installation, incorporating personal field recordings and live cymatics projections,

delves into the struggle to preserve nature in an urbanizing world and highlights the fragility of freshwater resources.

Rouseré’s art serves as a catalyst for introspection on the nexus of nature and human activity, inspiring action to safeguard our

environment. His recent involvement since October 2022 with the <In>Tangible lab at VCUQ has further expanded his explorations

through collaborations and ongoing projects focused on collecting meaningful sounds and audio content.
