Lecture Recital with Megumi Masaki – HEARING ICE, 5.15pm-6pm
Tickets £11.50. FTE/U18 £5.50
Megumi Masaki’s HEARING ICE project seeks to mobilize positive social and environmental change through the sharing of personal stories, scientific facts, and interactive artistic works. It aims to raise awareness of climate change on ice and amplify voices of impacted communities through the research, development and creation of new substantial piano+multimedia narrative works. This process has many layers, uncovering personal stories, scientific facts and the synergy that translates into sonic and visual results.
While each work brings together different artists, scientists, and communities to explore distinctive perspectives of climate crisis, “dynamic interactions throughout centres a common environment where all voices have equal weight.” HEARING ICE connects us with our environment and provides hope in a time of crisis.
