About
Soundscape by Alex Hale
The Meeting: Code Red by Alex Hale, is an immersive 12 minute soundscape built around three key speeches about climate change: Margaret Thatcher speaking at the UN General Assembly 1989, Severn Cullis-Suzuki, aged 12, speaking for ECO at the UN Conference on Environment and Development, Rio 1992, and Mia Mottley, Prime Minister of Barbados speaking at COP26 the UN Climate Change Conference, Glasgow 2021. The pieces ends with the beautiful song of a single nightingale.
Installation by Claire Malet
Six discarded chairs entwined with ivy made from re-cycled electrical wire, the leaves hand-cut from plastic milk cartons.
