National FLOW Collective commission: The Cell by Liz Birch

Подробнее о видео

Liz Birch AKA Iridis is a Birmingham based musician that Bristol Beacon have been supporting, in partnership with the Midlands Arts Centre through our National FLOW Collective programme.

In response to our National FLOW Collective commission brief Liz produced The Cell, a piece comprised of audio, video and poetry, that in Liz’s words “expresses how I have felt these past six months; I wanted to communicate these feelings through words, as well as creating the atmosphere behind the words; what my brain sounded like and what my emotions would sound like if they were audible.”

“The poem has meaning to each individual person and I've always wanted people to create their own meanings. I feel it's more impactful that way. Each word, line and sound is there with a purpose, but I like people to find their own purposes.”
