‘THE CLOTHES YOU WEAR’ : A SOUNDSCAPE INSPIRED BY FABRIC, FORM, AND FEMININITY
February, 2019
My Soundscape I composed for the ROBERTS | WOOD - AW19 - London Fashion Week show at the ICA in London, February, 2019.
This project really pushed me into uncharted territory, and gave me the opportunity to experiment with sound in new ways I hadn’t previously done before. I was asked to incorporate speech, from interviews between designer Katie Roberts Wood and various female artistes and designers, to create a flowing internal dialogue of thoughts and ideas, about empowerment, oppression, character, individuality, and femininity, and how all these things impact and influence their creative processes.
The soundscape was then played through big speakers dotted around the installation at the ICA.

A clip of my rainy, Columbia Road Flower Market inspired soundscape I made for the Wen Pan Studio - London Fashion Week - AW20 - show and presentation at Victoria House, Bloomsbury Square, London - 16th February 2020.
I sampled the Columbia Road flower market punters chit chat & classic cockney stall holders gab to give the feeling of being caught up in its famous Sunday bustle.
Special thanks, and congratulations to the shows creative director : Karlmond Tang.
