Immersion: Selina Thompson (Part 1) 

Last year we held Immersion, a collaboration between Selina Thompson, the People of Tower Hamlets and the Air they Breathe.
The first part of the project explored the sacredness of breath by inviting local womxn of colour from the many communities of Tower Hamlets, to record their breath. The recordings became part of a soundscape built from their chorus of breath and was performed in four locations across the borough.
Immersion was one of the commissions for Season for Change, a UK-wide cultural programme inspiring urgent and inclusive action on climate change, delivered in partnership by Artsadmin and Julie’s Bicycle.
This project was supported by ACT (Art, Climate, Transition) through the Creative Europe programme of the European Union, the Foundation for Future London and City of London, and Arts Council England through Season for Change
