In Your Face the Longest Light

In your Face the Longest Light is an 18 minute listening journey into stories of love and fear, selected to be exhibited in Theastre Gates Sanctum, produced by Situations and MAYK. Using one on one interview format, insights, stories and reflections were gathered from three participants. These recordings were then edited together to create a sonic reflection on the state of being fearful and in love.

Set to music and inter-woven with a poetic text, the sound-scape set out to invite audience members to listen to intimate stories expressed by others, and use this listening as a chance to reflect on their own ideas and experiences of being in love.

As part of the experience, audience members were blindfolded. This was to invite an embodied experience of listening, and to literally privilidge the auditory over the visual, which is a question currently running through my practice.
