Beth Atkinson / A Sense of Place

Beth Atkinson, A Sense of Place

Beth Atkinson’s practice uses songs, stories and folklore to uncover a sense of place. Beth began her sessions with playful music games to encourage the students to experiment with sounds and hone their listening skills. She then used the mythological tale of Theseus and the Minotaur combined with folklore from the Underground to create sound works with the students. The resulting pieces can be heard here.
