Breathe in… And out… And… don’t… stop.
The Breath Control Project is about the inhalations and exhalations that form the melody, rhythm and punctuation of our everyday existence. Although breathing is universal, it is personal. It is a sustaining action that can be both conscious and subconscious, completely taken for granted and the sole focus of life itself.
The project includes performance, installations, sound and film and has been supported by Arts Council England, The Coronet Theatre, Cambridge Junction and produced by Artsadmin
On The Wing was a performance at Anglesey Abbey near Cambridge. Commissioned to mark the anniversary of Lord Fairhaven bequeathing the property to the National Trust, the work took Fairhaven’s love of ornithology and the observed bird life at its heart, concluding in a birdcage folly, a performance and a composition for flute based on bird species flight paths. A film about the project can be seen here

The singers are out of breath. The swimmers are out of their depth.
Singers and swimmers strike out towards the water’s edge, spanning the wide expanse of beach. They each look towards the sea, eyes intent, focused on the horizon, searching for something. Is somebody lost at sea? Stories of endeavour are interwoven with haunting music, lifeguard drills, calls for help and struggles for breath.
Out of Water takes you on a poetic journey from the land to the water’s edge. Created by Helen Paris and Caroline Wright, Out of Water features a sound score by composer Jocelyn Pook and a live performance by soprano Laura Wright.
Out of Water is a Live Art Collective East project for the London 2012 Festival supported by Arts Council England, PRS For Music Foundation’s Women Make Music Scheme and Norfolk County Council.
