Sounding Water

A deeper exploration into ways we can interact with the agency of water, to liberate past and present histories of the spaces we inhabit.

PINK

For one weekend, PINK will be transformed into an expanded listening space through installation, performance, text, and conversation. Join us on Friday 17th October for an evening of Sounding Water ~ an unfurling durational gathering of sound, image, and voice.Live performances interlace field recordings, archival traces, spoken word, and moving image, creating a shifting, multi-channel environment that invites listeners to follow the currents of memory and place.Weekend Programme:Saturday 18th October (12–4 PM) The Sounding Water installation will be open throughout the afternoon, with interactive and playful elements to explore - from hydrophone play and watery score creation to plant sculpture interactions and creative writing prompts.Listening Workshop (Saturday 1–2 PM) Join us for a participatory listening workshop inspired by the practices of composer Pauline Oliveros. Through simple, guided exercises, we will explore deep listening as a way to attune to our surroundings, expand awareness, and connect with place and community. Open to all - no prior experience needed, just curiosity and openness to listening.Sunday 19th October (11 AM–2 PM) A relaxed listening party brings the weekend to a gentle close. Settle into the space, spend time with the installation, and join the artists for quiet, reflective conversations across the afternoon.Collaborating Artists:Lizzie King works across photography, print, and sound, her practice investigates ecological memory, cycles of decay and regeneration, and alchemical image-making using analogue processes and natural materials. She explores how landscapes absorb and express presence, history, and loss.Inland Taipan (Aisling Davis / Thalia Styx) is a multi-instrumentalist and installation artist, drawing on marine biology, architecture, and underwater archaeology. Her sound-based practice builds tactile sonic environments. She has exhibited internationally, scored for film and orchestra, and recorded at Abbey Road Studios.Hayley Suviste is a composer and sound artist working with field recordings, oral histories, and archives. Her immersive works explore memory, place, and community. She is completing a practice-based PhD at the University of Manchester’s NOVARS Research Centre on the ethics of sound-based storytelling.Fiona Brehony is an artist and writer working between geography, sound, documentary, and performance. Her practice is rooted in urban change and environmental equity.
