À propos

Hisia in an invitation to 8 artists to explore the emotional roller coaster of the past six months, since lockdown was imposed. Fear, surprise, sadness, disgust, anger, anticipation, joy and trust expressed through words, movement, imagery, sound, visual and experiential arts: a delight to the senses. A series of personal statements within the frame of a common journey. We invite you to take this journey with us.

Performers: Jaz Fairy J, Meryem Alaoui, Nicola Pantin, Sukruti Tirupattur and Yvonne Ng.

Videographer: Ella Cooper

Spoken word artist: Paulina Anthony-O'Kieffe

Music: Evangelia Kambites
