This Sound and Art Installation was created for the Newport Rising Festival in November 2019. Asked to create a piece which responded to the historic protests of Newport, the installation addresses how a protest is initiated by one person speaking out. Without one person speaking out and attracting a mass of people with the same beliefs, a protest would never happen.
Combining the speech of eight individuals speaking out about something they feel passionate about with a minimalistic electronic score and digital editing, I created a vibrant video which I hope to spread the message with. This video was projected onto material and displayed multiple times in Newport's Westgate Hotel.
As well as performances in the Westgate hotel, this installation was also played at the Soundbar Concert Series on 23rd January 2020.
