Silvertown was a site-specific choir work made in collaboration with the poet Annie Freud for performance in a disused factory in East London. Inspired by the site’s changing history, the work was performed as part of the London Festival of Architecture, 2017, by the experimental choir, Musarc.
Silvertown was a festival highlight in Wallpaper Magazine, Culture Trip, Dezeen, and elsewhere.
