I perform solo or in collaboration with other artists / musicians / choreographers / dancers - and have an on-going project with my daughter, the artist Pheobe riley Law 'interference of objects' (inc. performances at Fort Process and Ftarri, Tokyo)



review from Clot Magazine: 

Starting our day with Jez Riley French and Pheobe Riley who used of tape, surface resonance via contact microphones and amplified objects from the fort alongside recent recordings of ensembles resonating buildings from Jez’s ‘salts’ project. A soft interplay of materiality and movement (or gesture). Probably one of the quietest gigs we’ve come to see, the delicacy and granular detail of the sound was otherworldly.

performances always include elements that draw on the acoustics of the performance space and its locale

I also enjoy workshop based situations where, as a group, we explore space, stillness and sound, often using photographic or text scores as cues for intuitive performances - both with experienced artists and those new to the forms explored




i'm fortunate to have performed across the world, including in the UK, Italy, Japan, Belgium, Australia, Korea, Czech Republic, France, Sweden, Iceland, Austria etc.

details of performance schedules can be found on the news page and past performances on the cv page.
