Ambient sound generated from field recordings of the Honouring Esther walks in Somerset (2015) produced for the installation at 44AD Art Space, Bath. Used in the documentation space. Running time 8.22.
Honouring Esther:
Two walks each lasting two days
in Somerset, England and Lower Saxony, Germany. The line of a Nazi Death March
transposed, returned and retraced, working with the testimony of human rights
activist and Holocaust survivor, Esther Brunstein. The walks took place as
Germany publicly welcomed refugees crossing the fields of Eastern Europe.
Devised, curated and hosted with artist, Lorna Brunstein, Esther’s daughter.
Both cycles of walks ended with an exhibition/installation.
