SOUTH X SOUTH EAST

Poetry, music and soundscape take us from Southern Africa to South East London

SOUTH X SOUTH EAST by Belinda Zhawi explores migration when one is young, interrogates what it means to forge identities based on geography. What it means to have more than one home and further exploration of what home means. The aim of the project is to explore the emotional landscape of these seismic shifts and how they can affect a person in their later life when thinking about identity. SXSE aims to explore loss and mourning of home or geographies through the use of poetry, vocalisation and music. The works featured in this projects are field recordings and original works with musical contributions from harpist, Marysia Osuchowska and Caleb Azumah Nelson.
