Multimedia Performance

2020

Four musicians and a painter imagine an astonishing and beautiful vision of hope in ecological crisis.

Processed through formulae and machine, set free in imagination and music, In Our Bones exploded a single poem in a live song-cycle that speaks of migration, landscape, roots, heritage and home. A multimedia collaboration collaging voices, song, poetry and paint, calling for action on the most pressing issue in the last ten million years. 

“Tell us who we once were, we are not afraid of ourselves.”

by Freddie Crossley and Femi Oriogun-Williams
