Susan Hiller is an installation artist. I Like how she uses audio in her pieces to give them more intimacy. 'monument 1980' which was exhibited at Tate britain, consists of 41 coloured photographs of Londoners who died trying to rescue others which are lay out in a diamond shape behind a park bench. On the park bench are headphones in which you can listen to the artists meditation of death and heroism etc. This makes the viewers participants in the work. I like how the use of audio in Susan's work gets the viewers more involved in her pieces and the words give the photographs more meaning.
