An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.

Andrew Chalk & Christoph Heemann return with their diaphanous, impressionistic drone duo; their slowly evolving and enthralling works flutter and quiver with elegantly restrained, miniature sound events.
The struggle for sex workers’ rights and how we can understand it in the continuum of care work and other forms of invisibilised and precarious work.
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
