Four Tet have revealed they will be creating three new tracks for an art exhibition in London. Muscle Memory, by artist Anna Liber Lewis, will be on display at Elephant West, Wood Lane, untill the 17th of March. Childhood friends Liber Lewis and Four Tet hope to create a new type of artistic reality. Releasing the news on Twitter Four Tet announced the Elephant West will be the only place to hear the new songs.

I’ve made 3 new tracks as part of an exhibition with the artist Anna Liber Lewis that opens at the Elephant West gallery in London on Friday. This will be the only place you can hear the new music. Headphones and audio players are supplied at the gallery. pic.twitter.com/dmZ6wQKnt2

Headphones will be provided during the exhibition for a full sensory experience. The artists hope the experience will that will challenge contemporary ideas of what art is. In a press release Elephant West said “This will be a multi-sensory experience, where the audience should feel able to move freely, and dance if they want to; it aims to disrupt the idea of the ‘white cube space’ exhibition, ubiquitous across the contemporary art scene since the end of the 19^th century.”  Four Tet (real name Kieren Hebden) has been friends with Anna Liber Lewis since childhood, and the music and paintings are to be experienced in tandem together.  

Tomorrow we open the second artist commission at Elephant West—a collaboration between London painter and winner of the Griffin Art Prize 2017, Anna Liber Lewis, and her life-long friend, the illustrious electronic musician Kieren Hebden, aka @FourTet. https://t.co/CIW8u4CIXT — Elephant Magazine (@ElephantMag) January 17, 2019

Describing the music created by Four Tet, Elephant West stated “each [track is] made in response to the images Liber Lewis was sending him over a period of about 6 months.  The tracks range from ambient and twinkly, to bass-heavy and danceable, echoing the emotional journey across Liber Lewis’s work”, and fans are very excited to see the results.

You are a true artist when i discovered your music I was transported off this crazy planet. Thanks!
