FADE in… bring a track, podcast clip, sonic inspiration or aural delight
In the mix… Feel free to have lights off, candles burning, scents diffusing, dancing feet, enquiring minds
FADE out… Feel free to leave as you need, just give us a sign
As part of the public programme for Deep in The Eye and The Belly, Lauren Craig and Sam Williams will host FADE (undercurrents), an active listening workshop exploring words and sounds connected to themes surrounding the exhibition.
FADE began as a series of online group listening gatherings hosted by Lauren Craig and Sam Williams during the lockdown periods of the Covid-19 pandemic. Now, for the first time, it will take place as an experimental hybrid online and in person session at San Mei Gallery.
Participants are invited to bring audio material connected to the themes below (including but not limited to music, sound recording, texts…) which the group will explore together with an open invitation to respond through discussion, drawing, writing or any other means (privately or shared).
Themes include:
Water / Oceans / Cetaceans / Futures / Community / Climate / Survival / Queerness / Capital / Bodies / Bodies as worlds / Transformation / Memory / Response/Ability
