Her practice explores the spatio-temporal aspects of sound and architecture, crafting audio works that manipulate and distort perceptions of time, space and experience. Caddy’s work focuses on the incorporation of acoustic, electro-acoustic and recorded space within performance, installation and concert presentation, often using amplified cello as her primary sound source. In her live performance she uses multi-channel configurations in low lighting or complete darkness. She has performed and exhibited at Issue Project Room, Wroclaw Museum of Contemporary Art, Borealis, and Maerz Musik. Caddy is a PhD candidate under media historian Douglas Kahn at UNSW Sydney, Australia. In 2020, Caddy performed Long Throw as part of Sonic Acts Academy. Later that year, Caddy presented Projection #3: The Wharf in Amsterdam’s NDSM, a commissioned piece by Sonic Acts, realised and built in close collaboration with media artist and engineer Miodrag Gladović.
