| Abstract: | Sweet Waters is about legacies of British slave-ownership as revealed through a cycle of participatory performative walks and creative dialogues in Bath and along the River Avon. Resonating from the cycle of walks and repatriating sounds of the manufacture of goods destined for the West Coast of Africa, Soundings responds to a watery sonic environment. Working with field recordings, background research and other materials gathered on the walks this installation begins a new phase for the Sweet Waters project. The Mill is a relic of an industry that once produced brass goods to be traded for enslaved people. One last water wheel still turns at Saltford. |
