Join artist Emma Critchley in conversation with curator Marleen Boschen alongside Critchley’s solo exhibition, Soundings.
Join Emma Critchley and Marleen Boschen as they discuss the important conversations arising from Critchley’s current exhibition, Soundings, as well as imagining life in the deep, researching through the body, and thinking with the camera.
Soundings is a thought-provoking showcase combining filmmaking, choreography, and public engagement to address the urgent and complex issue of deep-sea mining.
Alongside their discussion, Critchley will also read a short excerpt from the Rights of the Deep text, included as part of Soundings, before exploring the question: how can art sit in policy spaces?
Marleen Boschen is an artist, curator, lecturer and researcher with a particular interest in ecological imaginaries, sound and border environments.
Emma Critchley is an artist who uses water as a formal material property within a range of media including film, photography, sound, installation, and writing. Her work explores the underwater environment as a political, philosophical, and environmental space.
Soundings is on show at John Hansard Gallery until 3 May 2025.
