2027 Innovators in Residence Focus on Transformative Audio and Printmaking Experiences

The Library of Congress has appointed New York-based audiovisual artist Amanda Belantara and Florida-based printmaker Jacoub Reyes as its 2027 Innovators in Residence. 

With her project, The World is Sound, Belantara will work with collaborators to use sound recordings from the Library’s collections to build a playful audio interface, inviting listeners to create their own sonic compositions from historical recordings. Reyes’ project, The Global Impression, will showcase visual material, rendering hand-made printmaking marks from the Library’s Prints and Photographs Division in an interactive online interface.

Belantara has previously worked as a creative producer and teaching artist, collaborating with cultural heritage institutions in New York, Japan and the United Kingdom to create interactive audio installations, audio tours and oral history projects. Through her experiences in field recording, she has developed a deep appreciation for how sounds can surface hidden connectionsand create unique storytelling experiences.
