The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
A conversation about the movement for prison abolition and refusing the logic of race and sex that underpins the criminalisation and mass incarceration of communities.

Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon
